Adaptive Compressed Sensing Differential Privacy Federated Learning Based on Orbital Spatiotemporal Characteristics in Space–Air–Ground Networks

With the development of 6G communication technology, Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks (SAGINs) have become critical infrastructure for global intelligent collaborative computing. However, federated learning deployment in SAGINs faces three severe challenges: the high dynamics of satellite orbital motion, node resource heterogeneity, and privacy vulnerabilities in data transmission. This paper proposes an adaptive compressed sensing differential privacy federated learning framework based on orbital spatiotemporal characteristics. First, we design orbital periodicity-driven time-varying sparse sensing matrices that dynamically adjust compression strategies according to satellite orbital positions, achieving intelligent communication efficiency optimization. Second, we propose an orbital predictability-based privacy budget temporal allocation mechanism and perform differential privacy noise injection in the compressed domain, establishing a compression-privacy joint optimization algorithm. Furthermore, we construct an energy-communication-privacy ternary collaborative mechanism that achieves multi-objective dynamic balance through model predictive control. Finally, we design reinforcement learning-based dynamic routing scheduling and hierarchical aggregation strategies to effectively handle the time-varying characteristics of network topology. Simulation experiments demonstrate that compared to existing methods, the proposed approach achieves 3-12% improvement in model accuracy and 30-50% enhancement in communication efficiency while maintaining differential privacy protection with dynamic privacy budget ε∈[0.1,10.0] and compression ratio ρ∈[0.2,0.8]. Unlike static compressed sensing approaches that ignore orbital periodicity, the proposed orbital-driven time-varying sensing matrices reduce reconstruction error by up to 19.4% compared to fixed-matrix baselines, validating the synergistic effectiveness of integrating orbital spatiotemporal characteristics with federated learning in 6G SAGIN deployments. The framework assumes reliable orbital propagation via SGP4/SDP4 models and does not account for Doppler frequency shifts or inter-satellite link handover delays; future extensions include scalability to mega-constellations and integration of quantum-resistant privacy mechanisms.

Abstract

With the development of 6G communication technology, Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks (SAGINs) have become critical infrastructure for global intelligent collaborative computing. However, federated learning deployment in SAGINs faces three severe challenges: the high dynamics of satellite orbital motion, node resource heterogeneity, and privacy vulnerabilities in data transmission. This paper proposes an adaptive compressed sensing differential privacy federated learning framework based on orbital spatiotemporal characteristics. First, we design orbital periodicity-driven time-varying sparse sensing matrices that dynamically adjust compression strategies according to satellite orbital positions, achieving intelligent communication efficiency optimization. Second, we propose an orbital predictability-based privacy budget temporal allocation mechanism and perform differential privacy noise injection in the compressed domain, establishing a compression-privacy joint optimization algorithm. Furthermore, we construct an energy-communication-privacy ternary collaborative mechanism that achieves multi-objective dynamic balance through model predictive control. Finally, we design reinforcement learning-based dynamic routing scheduling and hierarchical aggregation strategies to effectively handle the time-varying characteristics of network topology. Simulation experiments demonstrate that compared to existing methods, the proposed approach achieves 3-12% improvement in model accuracy and 30-50% enhancement in communication efficiency while maintaining differential privacy protection with dynamic privacy budget ε∈[0.1,10.0] and compression ratio ρ∈[0.2,0.8]. Unlike static compressed sensing approaches that ignore orbital periodicity, the proposed orbital-driven time-varying sensing matrices reduce reconstruction error by up to 19.4% compared to fixed-matrix baselines, validating the synergistic effectiveness of integrating orbital spatiotemporal characteristics with federated learning in 6G SAGIN deployments. The framework assumes reliable orbital propagation via SGP4/SDP4 models and does not account for Doppler frequency shifts or inter-satellite link handover delays; future extensions include scalability to mega-constellations and integration of quantum-resistant privacy mechanisms.
