Stable Marriage Matching for Traffic-Aware Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks: A Gale-Shapley Algorithmic Approach

In keeping with the rapid development of communication technology, a new communication structure is required in the next-generation communication system. In particular, research on using High Altitude Platform (HAP) or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to the existing terrestrial network is being actively conducted. In this paper, we propose the method to match HAP and UAV using the Gale-Shapley algorithm in relay communication. The numerical simulation results demonstrate that applying the Gale-Shapley algorithm(GSA) shows superior performance compared to random matching.
