SOURCE-LINKED INTELLIGENCE

Space Generative AI with Solar Energy Harvesting

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 1, 2026 · UTC

Satellites are emerging as promising platforms to extend generative \emph{artificial intelligence} (AI) services to remote areas lacking terrestrial infrastructure. However, deploying space generative AI is fundamentally constrained by the limited, time-varying onboard energy supplied by solar \emph{energy harvesting} (EH). This paper presents a framework for solar-powered space generative AI in which a satellite receives a user prompt, executes a diffusion-based image-generation model, and downlinks the compressed result within a strict time window. We identify the fundamental \emph{computati
