Research on GRU Neural Network Satellite Traffic Prediction Based on Transfer Learning

In this paper, we propose a Gated Recurrent Unit(GRU) neural network traffic prediction algorithm based on transfer learning. By introducing two gate structures, such as reset gate and update gate, the GRU neural network avoids the problems of gradient disappearance and gradient explosion. It can effectively represent the characteristics of long correlation traffic, and can realize the expression of nonlinear, self-similar, long correlation and other characteristics of satellite network traffic. The paper combines the transfer learning method to solve the problem of insufficient online traffic data and uses the particle filter online training algorithm to reduce the training time complexity and achieve accurate prediction of satellite network traffic. The simulation results show that the average relative error of the proposed traffic prediction algorithm is 35.80% and 8.13% lower than FARIMA and SVR, and the particle filter algorithm is 40% faster than the gradient descent algorithm.
