Ground Station Pass Allocation in Operations using AI

Abstract

To ease this process, an AI-based Tool for Intelligent Allocation of Ground Operations, , has been developed for automated ground station pass planning and optimization. uses a domain independent planner and scheduler as core solving process and it is fully integrated in the mission ground segment software. This paper describes the problem, the methodological approach followed for the translation into a planning problem and the architectural aspects of the integration of the planning technology with the Cluster-II mission control software platform.
