Design of Satellite Network Simulation Platform Supporting Distributed Controller

연구 분야: Software Development

학회: International Conference on Wireless and Satellite Systems

Satellite networks, integral to future communication, benefit from SDN’s advantages. Combining SDN with satellite networks, especially leveraging distributed controllers, shows promise. To facilitate research, we propose a simulation platform. Integrating STK, Containernet, Docker, and ONOS, it supports scenario and topology simulation and distributed control. Python scripts drive STK for scenario creation, Containernet for SDN network setup, and ONOS for controller functionality. Tests validate platform efficacy, showcasing ONOS’s robustness and Docker node compatibility. This platform fosters satellite network research with scalability and practical applicability.
