Low-Earth-Orbit-Satellite-Network-Simulation-Tool

An open-source Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network simulation tool designed to simulate satellite network functions, including real-time satellite operation visualization, satellite-to-ground data transmission, and inter-satellite link transmission. It provides a platform for researchers and developers to simulate and analyze LEO satellite networks.

Installation & Usage

Installation

1. Clone the project to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/GoldenWarriorsDontEatCoriander/Low-Earth-Orbit-Satellite-Network-Simulation-Tool.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd Low-Earth-Orbit-Satellite-Network-Simulation-Tool

3. Open the Command Prompt (CMD) or PowerShell and Install dependenciesusing pip:

Usage

1. Run the main.py script located in the src folder to start the simulation. The default port is set to 8080:

   Open the Command Prompt or PowerShell in the src directory and run:

   python main.py

2. To view the satellite constellation in 3D, open the src/visualization/constellation_3d.html file in any modern web browser.

3. The config/config.ini file allows you to adjust various parameters, such as constellation, satellite, user, environmental, time, and web server settings.
