Research on the Policy-Driven Self-Management Model in Satellite Network Management

In order to accomplish the automatic and intelligent management to the satellite network, this paper designs a policy-driven self-management model which integrates all network management function components by policy engine to manage the network. In the model, policy decision point receives soft-faulty events, conducts policy decision-making and sends the results to the corresponding management function components to solve the soft-faulty problems, which don’t need human intervention. Furthermore, this paper adopts a task decomposition mechanism to realize the policy-based collaboration management. Simulation results show that the self-management model improves the automaticity of the satellite network management.
