Abstract
The integrated satellite-terrestrial networks (ISTNs) through spectrum sharing have emerged as a promising solution to improve spectral efficiency and meet increasing wireless demand. However, this coexistence introduces significant challenges, including inter-system interference (ISI) and the low Earth orbit satellite (LSat) movements. To capture the actual environment for resource management, we propose a time-varying digital twin (DT)-aided framework for ISTNs incorporating 3D map that enables joint optimization of bandwidth (BW) allocation, traffic steering, and resource allocation, and aims to minimize congestion. The problem is formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP), addressed through a two-phase algorithm based on successive convex approximation (SCA) and compressed sensing approaches. Numerical results demonstrate the proposed method's superior performance…
