Resumen
The increasing number of satellites for specific space tasks makes it difficult for traditional satellite task planning that relies on ground station planning and on-board execution to fully exploit the overall effectiveness of satellites. Meanwhile, the complex and changeable environment in space also poses challenges to the management of multi-satellite systems (MSS). To address the above issues, this paper formulates a mixed integer optimization problem to solve the autonomous task planning for MSS. First, we constructed a multi-agent-based on-board autonomous management and multi-satellite collaboration architecture. Based on this architecture, we propose a hybrid genetic algorithm with simulated annealing (H-GASA) to solve the multi-satellite cooperative autonomous task planning (MSCATP). With the H-GASA, a heuristic task scheduling scheme was developed to deal with possible task conflicts in MSCATP. Finally, a simulation scenario was established to validate our proposed H-GASA, which exhibits a superior performance in terms of computational power and success rate compared to existing algorithms.
