Optimizing Earth Observation Satellite Schedules under Unknown Operational Constraints: An Active Constraint Acquisition Approach
Earth Observation (EO) satellite scheduling (deciding which imaging tasks to perform and when) is a well-studied combinatorial optimization problem. Existing methods typically assume that the operational constraint model is fully specified in advance. In practice, however, constraints governing separation between observations, power budgets, and thermal limits are often embedded in engineering artefacts or high-fidelity simulators rather than in ex
