Space-Air-Ground Integrated Wireless Networks for 6G: Basics, Key Technologies, and Future Trends

With the expansive deployment of ground base stations, low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, and aerial platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and high altitude platforms (HAPs), the concept of space-air-ground integrated network (SAGIN) has emerged as a promising architecture for future 6G wireless systems. In general, SAGIN aims to amalgamate terrestrial nodes, aerial platforms, and satellites to enhance global coverage and ensure seamless connectivity. Moreover, beyond mere communication functionality, computing capability is increasingly recognized as a critical attribute of sixth generation (6G) networks. To address this, integrated communication and computing have recently been advocated as a…
