SpaceDiffusion: Over-the-Orbit Diffusion for Space Generate-and-Forward Communications

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 17, 2026 · UTC

Satellite communications are an essential component of sixth-generation (6G) mobile networks, which provide ubiquitous connectivity for global services. However, the satellite uplink remains a critical bottleneck for ground devices: their limited transmit power and antenna apertures result in low data rates and high packet errors. To overcome this bottleneck, this paper advocates a novel relaying paradigm termed generate-and-forward (GF) communications, where satellites exploit on-orbit generative artificial intelligence (AI) to robustly reconstruct corrupted data prior to forwarding.
