Summary The topology of the navigation satellite network with agility link evolves with chain‐building slots periodically. The navigation data are transmitted in a “store, carry and forward” manner without requiring end‐to‐end paths. Thus, the navigation satellite network with agility link can be considered as a deterministic delay tolerant network (DTN). The data transmission of navigation satellite network is limited by chain‐building slot and bandwidth. To utilize network transmission link and communication bandwidth fully, this paper proposed an algorithm called parallel data transmission for the navigation satellite network with agility link. Based on the network characteristics, the algorithm is designed with polling pattern of link establishment and formulated as parallel data transmission problem based on deterministic scheduling DTN. Then, we design the method based on Dynamic Game from the view of data, while the Dynamic Programming method is proposed referring to Linear Programming–based method for optimization. Finally, the results were compared with three methods using the standard network routing metrics and showed that the proposed algorithm is better than the existing methods.
