In contrast to existing research, in this paper, we consider that a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite is sending the signal to the user on the ground in the presence of jamming from a Geostationary Equatorial Orbit (GEO) satellite side. We aim to maximize the signal-to-jamming plus noise ratio (SJNR) by optimizing the RIS beamforming and transmit power of the LEO satellite. Assuming the availability of global channel state information (CSI) at the RIS, we propose alternating optimization (AO) and semidefinite relaxation (SDR) techniques to address the complexity. Simulation results show that the optimization schemes lead to considerable performance improvements. The results also indicate that, given the high jamming power and the relatively small number of RIS elements, deploying the RIS on UAVs near the user is more effective in mitigating the impact of jamming interferers.","short_abstract":"This study investigates the anti-jamming space-air-ground integrated network (SAGIN) scenario wherein a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is deployed on a fixed Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to counteract malevolent jamming attacks.
