Abstract

The spectrum resource is a kind of scarce resource in the deep space exploration, the total bandwidth need for deep space communication is related to the required data rates, the number of spacecrafts, and the extent of spectrum frequency sharing. Future requirements of deep space communication may need to accommodate more spacecrafts within a particular band allocation, so the spread spectrum and multiple access techniques are widely used in deep space communications. And for the purpose of save power and reduce mutual interference, transmission power control may be introduced in the communication process. In this paper, a noncooperative differential game is proposed, and a power control algorithm is get from the equilibrium of the game, the results show that the algorithm can effectively reduce mutual interference, and also provide a way of route setup through relay nodes selection.
