The proposed hierarchical learning and computing framework leverages low-latency LEO satellites and geostationary-earth-orbit (GEO) satellites to provide global aggregation services for locally trained models on ground IoT devices. This addresses communication overhead and privacy concerns associated with transferring massive data to cloud servers. The framework efficiently aggregates received local models from ground devices on LEO satellites by modeling the space network as a directed graph and solving a Directed Steiner Tree (DST) problem using a topology-aware energy-efficient routing (TAEER) algorithm. Extensive simulations demonstrate that the proposed TAEER algorithm reduces energy consumption and outperforms benchmarks in real-world space-ground integrated network settings.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Space-ground integrated networks can provide global connectivity, especially for IoT devices generating valuable data in remote areas. To address communication challenges, a new framework uses LEO and GEO satellites to aggregate locally trained models on ground devices. This reduces energy consumption and improves performance. The framework uses directed graphs and algorithms to efficiently solve problems.
