| Summary: | Satellite edge computing (SEC) has garnered significant attention for its potential to deliver services directly to users. However, the uneven distribution of receiving tasks among satellites in the constellation can lead to uneven utilization of computing resources. This paper proposes a task offloading strategy for SEC that aims to minimize the average delay and energy consumption of tasks by assigning them to appropriate satellite nodes. The approach uses Lyapunov optimization to convert the long-term optimization problem with task queue length constraints into an assignment problem within a single time slot and solve it based on the Hungarian algorithm. Experimental simulations have shown that the proposed algorithm performs better than other baseline algorithms. |
