Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of satellite communication network technology, and in particular to a method for calculating dynamic information entropy in space terahertz communication networks. Background Technology

[0002] In space-based terahertz information networks, the stability and capacity face significant challenges due to the high-speed movement of nodes and complex environmental interference. Traditional network performance evaluation methods often struggle to accurately quantify this uncertainty, thus limiting the design of effective anti-interference strategies. To address this issue, a method is needed to accurately assess the capacity fluctuations and link transmission quality uncertainties of the network under different states. The introduction of the concepts of network capacity entropy and link information entropy provides a new approach to quantifying this uncertainty. Network capacity entropy reflects the magnitude of capacity fluctuations under different states, while link information entropy quantifies the uncertainty of transmission quality of a single link at different times. However, an effective dynamic information entropy calculation method for space-based terahertz information networks is currently lacking.
