Configuration Optimization Design for Satellite Constellation Using Multi-Island Genetic Algorithm

Utilizing the advantage of increased revisit performance of the low inclination regression orbit; this paper developed the optimization design model considering the constellation configuration, the orbit and the performance, and designedthe constellation configuration optimization design process. Based on Multi-Island Genetic Algorithm (MIGA), the multi-objective optimization design of a satellit constellation with rapid revisit in equal time interval is completed. Performance analysis results for satellite constellation optimized indicated that the mission requirements and design constraints are satisfied, and the rapid revisit to the target in equal time interval is achieved.
