Abstract
Satellite mission planning is the basis and top-level work of space missions and the beginning of each space mission. Therefore, the scientific research of satellite mission planning is very important. By analyzing the existing research results, we can know that the research on task planning mainly focuses on three aspects: research objects, established model, and solution algorithm. Starting from these three aspects vertically and then horizontally, this paper comprehensively discusses the theoretical basis, application, and advantages and disadvantages of related technologies in the research literature in recent years. Finally, based on the research on satellite mission planning, this paper puts forward its own views on the future development direction and research focus.
