contents In this paper, a rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) based joint optimization framework for the space-air-ground integrated network (SAGIN) is proposed, where the satellite and base stations employ uniform planar array (UPA) antennas for signal transmission, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) relay the satellite signals. Earth stations (ESs) and user equipments (UEs) receive signals from satellite and base stations (BSs), respectively, resulting in mutual interference. We first model the channels and signals in this scenario and analyse the interference at BSs and UEs. Then, We formulate a joint optimization problem aimed at maximizing the weighted sum-rate, involving beamforming, RIS-UAV deployment and phase shifts, and rate splitting. However, this problem is highly non-convex. To tackle this challenge, we apply a block coordinate descent (BCD) approach to decompose the problem and employ the weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) method to transform the non-convex objective function. For the rate-splitting sub-problem, a greedy algorithm is proposed and a successive convex approximation (SCA) algorithm is used for beamforming. Besides, the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm is employed for the RIS phase-shift problem with unit-modulus constraints, and an exhaustive search method is adopted for the complex UAV positioning and orientation. Simulation results validate that the proposed algorithm achieves superior performance in terms of user weighted sum-rate.
