Abstract:
The increasing world-wide demands in deep space scientific missions,
such as Lunar, Mars and other Planetary Exploration, along with the
rapidly growing advances in space communication technologies have
triggered the vision of so called future Deep Space Information
Networks (DSINs). The coined DSIN paradigm is envisioned to be an
integrated high speed self-organizing hypernetwork consisting of the
terrestrial ground-based information networks and the outer space-
based entities to provide maximum network capacity. In this document,
the problem of network infrastructure and architecture for DSINs is
investigated. Taking into account the major challenges or
characteristics affecting link, networking, transport, and security
design of DSINs, this document employs hypergraph theory to construct
network infrastructure and node architecture of space optical
switching, and further presents a five-layered hypernetwork model of
DSINs to enhance network connectivity. Combining with the benefits
in interconnection and interoperability of heterogeneous challenged
networks, brought by the well-known Delay-and Disruption-Tolerant
Networking (DTN) architecture, this document proposes a novel
architecture of DSINs from two levels including Layered Protocol
Stack and Management Plane. The proposed architecture preliminarily
achieves the basic concepts and the relevant mechanisms of wisdom
network, and the performance and quality of service (QoS) of DSINs
are thereby improved.
