The invention discloses a cascading fault defense and self-healing optimization method for an air-space-ground integrated network. According to the method, aiming at the problem that cascading faults are easily caused by node heterogeneous
coupling and topology dynamic change of the space-air-ground integrated network, a multi-factor coupled cascading
fault propagation dynamic model is firstly established, and the synergistic effect of node heterogeneity, link dynamics and
load redistribution is quantified; then, a closed-loop cooperative defense
system integrating early warning, isolation and self-healing is designed,
intelligent decision making is conducted through
machine learning,
reinforcement learning and the game theory, and the real-time performance and the energy efficiency performance on resource-limited edge nodes are ensured through a lightweight
algorithm; and finally, an NS-3 and
MATLAB joint simulation platform is constructed, and the model and the strategy are verified in various application scenes of
the Internet of Things. Experimental results show that the prediction error of the propagation model provided by the invention is controlled within 10%, the failure
recovery rate is improved to 85-90% through a defense strategy, the communication
interruption duration is reduced by more than 60%, the resource overhead is reduced by 20-25%, and theoretical support and technical guarantee are provided for stable operation of the space-air-ground integrated network in a safe and tough key environment.
