Research Status of Space-air-ground Integrated Network and Application Prospects of New Technologies

Abstract

To achieve the demand of all-time all-area coverage of wireless communications, space-air-ground integrated network (SAGIN) is important systematic development direction with global coverage, optional reception, and proportional demand service, which deeply integrate the satellite-based network, aerial-based network, and terrestrial-based network to break down the systematic barriers of each network and give full play to the functions of diff erent network dimensions.The development process of the SAGIN from the aspects of policy orientation, academic innovation, standards and norms were discussed.At the same time, the applications of the new emerged technology in the SAGIN were prospected, and the possible development direction of the SAGIN in the future was discussed.
