Satellite communications, essential for modern connectivity, extend access to maritime, aeronautical, and remote areas where terrestrial networks are unfeasible. Current GEO systems distribute power and bandwidth uniformly across beams using multi-beam footprints with fractional frequency reuse. However, recent research reveals the limitations of this approach in heterogeneous traffic scenarios, leading to inefficiencies. To address this, this paper presents a machine learning (ML)-based approach to Radio Resource Management (RRM). We treat the RRM task as a regression ML problem, integrating RRM objectives and constraints into the loss function that the ML algorithm aims at minimizing. Moreover, we introduce a context-aware ML metric that evaluates the ML model's performance but also considers the impact of its resource allocation decisions on the overall performance of the communication system.

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in military communications and networking is reshaping modern defense strategies, enhancing secure data exchange, real-time situational awareness, and autonomous decision-making. This survey explores how AI-driven technologies improve tactical communication networks, radar-based data transmission, UAV-assisted relay systems, and electronic warfare resilience. The study highlights AI applications in adaptive signal processing, multi-agent coordination for network optimization, radar-assisted target tracking, and AI-driven electronic countermeasures. Our work introduces a novel three-criteria evaluation methodology. It systematically assesses AI applications based on general system objectives, communications constraints in the military domain, and critical tactical environmental factors. We analyze key AI techniques for different types of learning applied to multi-domain network interoperability and distributed data information fusion in military operations. We also address challenges such as adversarial AI threats, the real-time adaptability of autonomous communication networks, and the limitations of current AI models under battlefield conditions. Finally, we discuss emerging trends in self-healing networks, AI-augmented decision support systems, and intelligent spectrum allocation. We provide a structured roadmap for future AI-driven defense communications and networking research.
