Optimization of Reconfigurable Satellite Constellations Using Simulated Annealing and Genetic Algorithm

Agile Earth observation can be achieved with responsiveness in satellite launches, sensor pointing, or orbit reconfiguration. This study presents a framework for designing reconfigurable satellite constellations capable of both regular Earth observation and disaster monitoring. These observation mod...
