| Summary: | Real-time health assessments are of great importance for the safe and stable operation of in-orbit swarms. To solve the problems of existing real-time health assessments of microsatellite swarms, such as the difficulty of selecting a multisource and assessment calculation normalization, this paper proposes a real-time health assessment method applicable to mission-oriented swarms. The method divides the microsatellite swarm into three levels: single satellite, intersatellite communication link and swarm effectiveness, which establish a multilevel index system by adopting the reliability evaluation based on random failure and failure by loss, a health evaluation based on natural connectivity, and a real-time dynamic analysis based on swarm topology. For the swarm effectiveness during the mission, the multilevel index and the entropy weight method are used to construct the effectiveness evaluation model of the whole swarm, and the health state evaluation of the swarm is realized based on the variable weight principle. The simulation results show that this method can quantify the health state of the microsatellite swarm in real-time, and it can predict the health state after the fault without maintenance.
