Abstract
The integrated space-ground network and its architecture are the focus and difficulty in research. Aiming at the problems of the incompatibility between satellite networks, satellite networks and ground networks, and the insufficiency of space network address resources, we propose an integrated space-ground network architecture based on the next generation Internet protocol IPv6. It combines the space communication protocols defined by CCSDS. The network layer protocol based on IPv6 is the foundation of the architecture. It ensures the interconnection and interoperability among inter-satellite networks and intra-satellite networks. The protocol of each layer in the architecture is designed. The IPv6 protocol, inter-satellite and intra-satellite transmission format, inter-satellite routing and intra-satellite communications are analyzed and designed. The experimental results show that the designed satellite router realizes the network communication and routing of IPv6 packets in intra-satellite and inter-satellite networks. It shields the differences between the satellite and ground network systems at the protocol level. It makes the satellite networks have good scalability and adaptability as with as the ground networks.
