Abstract

Multi-beam technique has been widely applied in modern satellite communication systems. However, the satellite power and bandwidth resources are scarce and expensive due to the limitation of satellite platform. Thus it is urgent to utilize the resources efficiently. Meanwhile, due to the disequilibrium of the non-uniform distribution of traffic request and the uniform coverage of satellite beams, the capacity of the overloaded beams may decrease since the lack of resources, while the resource utilization of the under-loaded beams will be insufficient. In order to increase the capacity of the multi-beam satellite communication system and improve the load balancing performance of the system, a beam coverage dynamic adjustment scheme based on maximizing system capacity is proposed in this paper. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
