Abstract

In this paper, channel resource allocation problem for LEO mobile satellite systems is investigated and a new dynamic channel resource allocation scheme is proposed based on differential game. Optimal channel resource allocated to each satellite beams are formulated as Nash equilibrium. It is proved that optimal channel resource allocation can be achieved and the differential game based scheme is applicable and acceptable. Numerical results shows that system performance can be improved based on the proposed scheme.
