Abstract

Satellite broadcast scheduling problem (SBSP) is an important optimisation problem in satellite communication systems and is known to be NP-complete. The existing state-of-the-art solution methodologies for the SBSP include neural networks, evolutionary algorithms, and other heuristic approaches. This paper proposes two new mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) formulations for the problem. The performance of the proposed MILP formulations has been evaluated using benchmark problem instances and several other test instances on a commercial MILP solver. Computational results show that the proposed formulations outperform the existing approaches in terms of solution accuracy and computation time.
