Abstract

Herein, an innovative transmission technique that utilizes the satellite aerial terrestrial integrated network (SATIN) architecture in combination with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) communications is proposed. This approach is designed to significantly enhance communication rates, which is critical for modern and future combat capabilities. The effectiveness of the proposed transmission system is validated by conducting a comparative analysis of the sum-throughput results, considering various numbers of transmission nodes within the SATIN structure. The results and analyses reveal that the proposed method outperforms traditional methods such as spatial division multiple access (SDMA) and time division multiple access (TDMA), especially in terms of reducing data loss. This superior performance is primarily due to the advanced capability of NOMA in minimizing interference between signals, resulting in improved sum-throughput outcomes. The implementation of this method is expected to significantly enhance command communications in manned-unmanned combat systems, thereby bolstering overall combat effectiveness through improved transmission rates.
