Research on the relay-satellite scheduling problem provides scientific decision-making methods for the task planning of the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite Systems (TDRSS). How to develop a reasonable scheduling model and design the scheduling algorithm according to the model are two key issues to address. In this paper, according to the characteristics of the relay satellite scheduling problem, incorporating the constraints brought by the visible time window between the relay satellite and the user spacecraft, mission attributes submitted by users, and the limited resources of the relay satellite, a scheduling programming model is established. Furthermore, a scheduling algorithm based on the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is proposed. Finally, the simulation data analysis shows that the scheduling algorithm based on the ABC algorithm is an effective and reasonable scheduling method.
