Performance improvement of licklider transmission protocol in complex deep space networks based on parameter optimization

A reasonable parameter configuration helps improve the data transmission performance of the Licklider Transmission Protocol(LTP).Previous research has focused mainly on parameter optimization for LTP in simplified scenarios with one to two hops or multihop scenarios with a custody mechanism of the Bundle Protocol(BP).However,the research results are not applicable to communications in Complex Deep Space Networks(CDSNs)without the custody mechanism of BP that are more suitable for deep space communications with LTP.In this paper,we propose a model of file delivery time for LTP in CDSNs.Based on the model,we propose a Parameter Optimization Design Algorithm for LTP(LTP-PODA)of configuring reasonable parameters for LTP.The results show that the accuracy of the proposed model is at least 6.47%higher than that of the previously established models based on simple scenarios,and the proposed model is more suitable for CDSNs.Moreover,the LTP parameters are optimized by the LTP-PODA algorithm to obtain an optimization plan.Configuring the optimization plan for LTP improves the protocol transmission performance by at least 18.77%compared with configuring the other parameter configuration plans.

基于不等差错保护喷泉码的LTP协议

Licklider传输协议(LTP)是深空通信中一个重要协议,但其自动重传(ARQ)机制无法满足传输时延的要求。为了利用喷泉码无需反馈的特点,降低LTP协议传输时延,同时满足LTP协议中红色数据和绿色数据不同可靠性的要求,将具有不等差错保护(UEP)特性的喷泉码引入LTP协议,得到具有不等差错保护特性的LTP(UEP-LTP)。对喷泉码不同的度分配不同的选窗概率,构造一个指数型的选窗概率函数并对该函数进行优化,由此获得性能更优的UEP-LTP(AUEP-LTP)。仿真结果表明,AUEP-LTP的红、绿色数据误码率可分别达到10-10.473 2和10-3.687 8,满足红、绿色数据不同可靠性要求,同时可减少LTP重传,提高协议性能,更适用于深空通信。

LTP协议数据传输轮次

Licklider协议(Licklider transmission protocol,LTP)是一种主要应用于空间网络的点到点传输协议,可用于空间网络相邻节点间的数据传输。LTP可靠传输通过返回确认和重传实现。空间网络节点间距离长,多个往返轮次的确认和重传过程造成极大的传输延迟。该文给出了一种传输轮次的形式化分析方法,其结果包含传输轮次的分布函数、期望和方差。另外提供了一种基于上下界的方法,给出了形式非常简洁的结论,其结果包含轮次期望的上下界和近似值。然后通过典型例子的仿真计算和比较验证了相关结论。
