A Stochastic Reward Net-Based Performance Analysis of LEO Satellite Networks

In this paper, a stochastic reward net (SRN) model is constructed to analyze the performance of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks in the case of packet loss. A lemma is proved to calculate the packet loss probability. Then, the impact of buffer size, arrival rate and packet size on packet loss probability is also analyzed using stochastic Petri net package (SPNP) 6.0. Through numerical results, some new results are derived thereby
