This paper considers LEO satellite- and cache-assisted UAV communications for content delivery in terrestrial networks, which shows great potential for next-generation systems to provide ubiquitous connectivity and high capacity.…
Modern global navigation satellite system receivers can access signals from several satellite constellations (including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou). Once these constellations are all fully operational, a typical receiver can expect to…
With the ever-increasing lunar missions, a growing interest develops in designing data relay satellite constellations for cislunar communications, which is challenged by the constrained visibility and huge distance between the earth and…
In this paper, we address the problem of reconfiguring Earth observation satellite constellation systems through multiple stages. The Multi-stage Constellation Reconfiguration Problem (MCRP) aims to maximize the total observation rewards…
We consider the joint constellation design problem for the two-user non-coherent multiple-access channel (MAC). Based on an analysis on the non-coherent maximum-likelihood (ML) detection error, we propose novel design criteria so as to…
This paper proposes a framework for scheduling the observation and download tasks of multiple agile satellites with practical considerations such as attitude transition time, onboard data capacity, and stereoscopic image acquisition. A…
Satellite constellations are transforming space systems from isolated spacecraft into networked, software-defined platforms capable of on-orbit perception, decision making, and adaptation. Yet much of the existing AI studies remains…
This article introduces a novel family of decentralised caching policies, applicable to wireless networks with finite storage at the edge-nodes (stations). These policies are based on the Least-Recently-Used replacement principle, and are,…
This paper introduces the problem of selecting a satellite system architecture considering commercial on-orbit refueling (OOR). This problem answers two questions: "What design lifetime should the satellite have?" and "How much propellant…
Fully re-orientable small spacecraft are now supported by commercial technologies, allowing them to point their instruments in any direction and capture images, with short notice. When combined with improved onboard processing, and…
Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations have become vital in emerging commercial and defense Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs). However, their predictable orbital dynamics and exposed geometries make them highly susceptible to…

Mega low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation is promising in achieving global coverage with high capacity. However, forwarding packets in mega constellation faces long end-to-end delay caused by multi-hop routing and high-complexity…
In this paper we consider a combination of the joint replenishment problem (JRP) and single machine scheduling with release dates. There is a single machine and one or more item types. Each job has a release date, a positive processing…
The design of satellite missions is currently undergoing a paradigm shift from the historical approach of individualised monolithic satellites towards distributed mission configurations, consisting of multiple small satellites. With a…
This paper investigates a specific instance of the static repositioning problem within station-based bike-sharing systems. Our study incorporates operational and damaged bikes, a heterogeneous fleet, and multiple visits between stations and…
For all multifunctional radar systems the allocation of resources plays an outstanding role. Many radars have low priority on surveillance tasks. In challenging situations this leads to neglecting of surveillance beams in directions where…
