STR-Agent: An LLM-Driven Agent for QoS-Aware Routing in LEO Satellite Networks
LEO satellite networks feature dynamic topologies, time-varying links, and diverse service requirements, which make conventional routing schemes difficult to support fine-grained quality-of-service (QoS) provisioning. Existing studies mainly optimize routing over network states with predefined objectives, but rarely address the practical challenge of translating unstructured natural-language service requests into adaptive routing decisions. To bridge this gap, we propose STR-Agent, an LLM-driven framework for QoS-aware routing in LEO satellite networks. The key innovation of STR-Agent lies in unifying intent perception, tool-based execution, experience accumulation, and reflection-based policy adaptation within a single agent architecture. Specifically, the Perception Module converts naturallanguage requests into structured routing semantics, while the Reflection Module dynamically adjusts the service-to-routingpolicy mapping according to real-time congestion conditions and historical routing outcomes, rather than relying on a fixed routing objective. In addition, we develop a specialized perception model, and construct a domain-specific supervised fine-tuning dataset for LEO service understanding. Simulation results in a Walker-Delta constellation show that STR-Agent significantly outperforms conventional baselines: it reduces end-to-end delay by up to 60% compared with DQ-Dijkstra, improves average intent-understanding accuracy from 45.4% to 92.45% after supervised fine-tuning, and the Reflection Module further reduces the delay by 120 ms at $\mathbf{6 0 0}$ Mbps. These results demonstrate the potential of LLM-driven agent architectures to enable serviceaware and adaptive QoS routing in future LEO satellite networks.
