Satellite-assisted internet of things (S-IoT), especially the S-IoT based on low earth orbit (LEO) satellite, plays an important role in future wireless systems. However, the limited on-board communication and computing resource and high mobility of LEO satellites make it hard to provide satisfied service for IoT users. To maximize the task completion rate under latency constraints, collaborative computing and resource allocation among LEO networks are jointly investigated in this paper, and the joint task offloading, scheduling, and resource allocation is formulated as a dynamic mixed-integer problem. To tack the complex problem, we decouple it into two subproblems with low complexity. First, the max-min fairness is adopted to minimize the maximum latency via optimal resource allocation with fixed task assignment. Then, the joint task offloading and scheduling is formulated as a Markov decision process with optimal communication and computing resource allocation, and deep reinforcement learning is utilized to obtain long-term benefits. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme has superior performance compared with other referred schemes.
