Link-State-Aware Proactive Data Delivery in Integrated Satellite–Terrestrial Networks for Multi-Modal Remote Sensing by Ranshu Peng, Chunjiang Bian, Shi Chen, Min Wu

“…Comprehensive experiments against state-of-the-art baselines (MAPPO, MAAC) demonstrate that multi-modal-MAPPO reduces the average content delivery latency by 53.55% and 29.55%, respectively, while improving push hit rates by 0.1718 and 0.4248. These results establish the framework as a scalable and adaptive solution for real-time intelligent data services in next-generation ISTNs, addressing critical challenges in resource-constrained, dynamic satellite–terrestrial environments.…”
