Toward Scalable SDN for LEO Mega-Constellations: A Graph Learning Approach

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2604.27478v1 Announce Type: new Terrestrial network limitations drive the integration of non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), notably mega-constellations comprising thousands of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. While these satellites act as interconnected network switches via inter-satellite links (ISLs), their massive scale creates severe bottlenecks for network management. To address this, we propose a scalable, hierarchical software-defined networking (SDN) framework.
