Abstract

With the development of communication technologies such as 5G, terrestrial networks have been able to provide efficient network services. However, the terrestrial network construction relies on base stations, which leads to the inability to achieve coverage in many areas of the world. To solve this problem, more and more researchers put forward the integrated network of terrestrial network and satellite network to achieve global coverage of the network. In this paper, we considered multiple factors and proposed a SDN-based cloud service architecture for space-terrestrial integrated network, which realizes the unified network management and provisioning through SDN. For the cloud service architecture, we introduce the components of the whole cloud service architecture in this paper, which are divided according to different levels and the functions of each part are explained in detail. Using the proposed cloud service architecture, different user requirements will be satisfied, and the quality of service is greatly improved.
