Overlay mode selection
Each grid corresponds to an overlay benefit, and if the grid is overlaid, the overlay benefit corresponding to the grid is obtained. The coverage benefit of a grid may be defined, for example, as the importance of the grid, e.g., the closer the grid is to a search point, the greater the value of the coverage benefit of that grid.
Fig. 3 is a flow chart of a coverage mode selection of a multi-imaging satellite area coverage dynamic planning method in a satellite resource limited situation according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, in an embodiment of the present invention, for the problem that the coverage area of the imaging satellite is expected to be the largest in the case of insufficient imaging satellite resources, the selection of the coverage mode may include the following steps:
in step S201, a first imaging satellite list is established, where the first imaging satellite list includes all imaging satellites in an initial state;
in step S202, a marked grid list GList is constructed, where the marked grid list GList includes grids that have been completely covered, and the initial state of the marked grid list GList is an empty list;
the following steps are performed for one imaging satellite in the first list of imaging satellites (to image satellite s)jFor example):

in step S209, for the selected imaging satellite, selecting a coverage pattern corresponding to the total coverage gain of the largest unrepeated coverage grid list GL' in the coverage pattern list of the selected imaging satellite as the selected coverage pattern of the selected imaging satellite;
in step S210, the coverage mode list of the selected imaging satellite is deleted from the coverage mode set;
in step S211, the selected imaging satellite is deleted from the first imaging satellite list to update the first imaging satellite list;
in step S212, determining whether the first imaging satellite list is an empty list;
under the condition that the first imaging satellite list is judged not to be an empty list, circulating the step S203 to the step S212 for the updated first imaging satellite list, and recalculating the coverage gain of each imaging satellite in the updated first imaging satellite list so as to obtain a new selected imaging satellite and a selected coverage mode of the new selected imaging satellite;
in step S213, in the case where it is determined that the first imaging satellite list is an empty list, the plurality of selected coverage modes are configured into a coverage scheme for covering a rectangular area to be covered.
In the case of insufficient imaging satellite resources, it is necessary that the number of selected coverage patterns is equal to the number of multiple imaging satellites, i.e. each imaging satellite covers an area, i.e. the above method of selecting coverage patterns can provide at least one coverage scheme, so that the coverage yield of multiple imaging satellites is as great as possible.
Embodiments of the present invention also provide a computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon instructions for causing a processor to execute a method for dynamic planning of multi-imaging satellite area coverage in any of the above-described satellite resource-constrained scenarios.
Through the embodiment, the dynamic planning method for multi-imaging satellite area coverage under the condition of limited satellite resources is divided into two stages, and the coverage mode generation and the coverage mode selection are separated, so that the method is reasonable in structure and clear in hierarchy; the multi-imaging satellite area coverage dynamic planning method can provide at least one coverage scheme which enables the coverage yield of a plurality of imaging satellites to be as large as possible.
