On the Performance of Integrated Satellite-Terrestrial Maritime Communications

In this paper, we present an integrated terrestrial and satellite maritime communication system, where a shorebased terrestrial base station (TBS) and a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite cooperatively provide wide-area communication services to maritime users. We conduct performance analysis for the integrated satellite-terrestrial maritime communication system. Specifically, we analyze the transmission rate and coverage probability of near-shore and off-shore users respectively according to the maritime communication environment. Besides, in order to better understand the impact of some key parameters, we also make asymptotic analysis in some special cases. Further, we design an optimization algorithm to maximize the coverage probability of near-shore users by adjusting the transmission power of TBS and the LEO satellite, while ensuring the both off-shore and near-shore users can meet the minimum communication rate requirements. Finally, extensive numerical analysis results verify the accuracy of the theoretical results and the effectiveness of the proposed optimization algorithm in the maritime communication system.

Joint Communication and Sensing Design for Integrated Satellite-Terrestrial Maritime Systems

Joint communication and sensing has been a key technology in 6G. By integrating sensing into maritime communications, ships can communicate with the base station while sensing the surrounding environment to ensure safe navigation. In this paper, we introduce an integrated satellite-terrestrial maritime system (ISTMS) with joint communication and sensing based on the same radio-frequency signals. Specifically, the terrestrial base station (TBS) and low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite provide communication services for near-shore users (NSUs) and off-shore users (OSUs), respectively, while simultaneously performing target sensing. Based on a differential evolution method (DE), we propose a sensing algorithm, which can enhance the location accuracy and reduce resource consumption. Furthermore, we derive the key performance metrics for both communication and sensing. Through joint beamforming optimization of the TBS and LEO satellite, we maximize the sum rate of maritime users while satisfying target localization accuracy requirements and transmit power constraints. Finally, extensive simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in terms of location accuracy and transmission rate compared with the baseline algorithms.

Robust Beamforming Design for Integrated Satellite-Terrestrial Maritime Communications in the Presence of Wave Fluctuation

In order to provide wireless services for wide sea area, this paper designs an integrated satellite-terrestrial maritime communication framework. Specifically, the terrestrial base station (TBS) serves near-shore users, while the low earth orbit (LEO) satellite communicates with off-shore users. We aim to improve the overall performance of integrated satellite-terrestrial maritime communication system. Thus, it makes sense to jointly optimize transmit beamforming at the TBS and LEO satellite. Due to sea wave fluctuation, the obtained channel state information (CSI) is often imperfect. In this context, a robust beamforming design algorithm is proposed with the goal of minimizing the total power consumption of integrated satellite-terrestrial maritime communication system while satisfying quality of service (QoS) requirements. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results confirm the effectiveness of proposed algorithm in maritime communications.
