In this paper, we study data transmission in the Terrestrial–Satellite Integrated Network (TSIN), where terrestrial networks and satellites are combined together to provide seamless global network services for ground users. However, efficiency of the data transmission is limited by the time-varying inter-satellite link connection and intermittent terrestrial–satellite link connection. Therefore, we propose a link-state aware hybrid routing algorithm, which selects the integrated data transmission path adaptively in this paper. First of all, a space–time topology model is constructed to represent the dynamic link connections in TSIN. Thus, the transmission delay can be analyzed accordingly, and the data transmission problem can then be formulated. To balance the effectiveness and accuracy of searching a hybrid path, we carefully discuss the optimization of space–time topology updating, and propose an inter-satellite link selection algorithm. For the terrestrial–satellite link in hybrid routing, the data transmission problem is transformed into a weighted bipartite graph matching problem and solved with a Kuhn–Munkres-based link selection algorithm. To verify the effectiveness of our proposed routing algorithm, extensive simulations are conducted based on a realistic Hongyun constellation project. Results show that the network performance is improved with respect to data transmission delay, packet loss rate, and throughput.

In this paper, a modal decomposition method is employed to analyze the properties of Rayleigh–Lamb waves propagating in an isotropic plate containing an open surface-breaking crack. The mode conversion coefficients (MCCs) are calculated as functions of crack depth and ultrasonic frequency for both an incident Lamb wave. Compared with the incident A0 mode, the MCC of the S0 mode exhibits a less smooth dependence on the phase of the crack modulated. The experimental, finite element method (FEM) and analytical results confirm that crack characteristics can be quantitatively evaluated from the Lamb wave mode conversion indued by the crack. This finding is beneficial for interpreting the detected ultrasonic signals in scenarios involving crack measurements between different waves, such as the modulation of the probing wave’s MCC by the material response in a tensile test machine.
