TL;DR

RepuSat is presented, a stability-aware routing framework acting as an algorithmic low-pass filter that rewards sustained stability and penalizes transient flappers by conceptualizing link states as time-evolving reputation scores.

Abstract

Laser Inter-Satellite Links (ISLs) in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations suffer from high-frequency volatility, causing traditional reactive routing to experience severe route flapping. We present RepuSat, a stability-aware routing framework acting as an algorithmic low-pass filter. By conceptualizing link states as time-evolving reputation scores, it rewards sustained stability and penalizes transient flappers. Simulations show RepuSat reduces latency by up to 49.7% and caps packet loss below 5%, proving that historical reliability outweighs instantaneous capacity.1

Adaptive Traffic-Aware Routing for Dynamic LEO Satellite Networks

Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks require adaptive routing because satellite mobility, inter-satellite link availability, and traffic congestion change over time. This paper proposes a double deep Q-Network-based traffic-aware routing method for dynamic LEO satellite networks. The routing agent selects the next-...

Defending Against Periodic Jamming: A Routing Protocol for UAV Networks with Neighborhood Collaboration

In adversarial electromagnetic environments, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) ad hoc networks are highly susceptible to periodic jamming. Because links are repeatedly disrupted and restored, periodic jamming is more challenging than continuous jamming: link-state protocols such as Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) may u...

RR-MPF: A Reliable Routing Algorithm Based on Markov Parallel Forecasting for STINs

Satellite–Terrestrial Integrated Networks (STINs) undergo frequent topology reconfiguration due to the high mobility of satellite nodes, which can disrupt active routing paths across time slot boundaries, increase packet drop, and degrade end-to-end reliability. This paper proposes RR-MPF (Reliable Routing with Markov...

How Area Geometry Shapes Link-State Routing Scalability in LEO Networks

For distributed link-state deployments on stable inclined-shell topologies, these results show that area division is a principled, geometry-driven design choice; they do not claim that PBAR supersedes centralized or geographic routing.
