| contents | The modern Internet supports diverse applications with heterogeneous quality of service (QoS) requirements. Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations offer a promising solution to meet these needs, enhancing coverage in rural areas and complementing terrestrial networks in urban regions. Ensuring QoS in such networks requires joint optimization of routing, bandwidth allocation, and dynamic queue scheduling, as traffic handling is critical for maintaining service performance. This paper formulates a joint routing and bandwidth allocation problem where QoS requirements are treated as soft constraints, aiming to maximize user experience. An adaptive scheduling approach is introduced to prioritize flow-specific QoS needs. We propose a Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS)-inspired method to solve the NP-hard route and bandwidth allocation problem, with Lyapunov optimization-based scheduling applied during reward evaluation. Using the Starlink Phase 1 Version 2 constellation, we compare end-user experience and fairness between our proposed DSROQ algorithm and a benchmark scheme. Results show that DSROQ improves both performance metrics and demonstrates the advantage of joint routing and bandwidth decisions. Furthermore, we observe that the dominant performance factor shifts from scheduling to routing and bandwidth allocation as traffic sensitivity changes from latency-driven to bandwidth-driven. |
