Abstract
The space-air-ground-ocean integrated network (SAGOI-Net) has become the focus of research in recent years, which has the characteristics of wide coverage and strong adaptability. However, due to the influence of multiple heterogeneous network segments, this network is unable to provide excellent quality of service (QoS). Based on the software-defined network and virtual network architecture, we abstract SAGOI-Net as a three-layer heterogeneous physical network resource, and propose a multi-domain virtual network embedding solution to optimize QoS. Specifically, before virtual network embedding, we collected SAGOI-Net's resource information through software-defined network and modeled it. In the virtual network embedding process, we first classify the virtual network request through K-means, and dynamically adjust the reward function to use reinforcement learning to solve the optimal virtual network embedding strategy. Finally, simulation experiments verify the effectiveness of the scheme.
