The disclosed technology relates to systems and methods for tasking satellite constellations. A method is disclosed herein for receiving, from a resource database of a satellite control system, knowledge data corresponding to a plurality of components associated with a satellite constellation communications system. The plurality of components can include one or more satellites associated with a constellation. The method includes processing the knowledge data according at least one received mission objective. Processing the knowledge data can include determining a status of at least one satellite in the constellation. The method includes scheduling the satellite control system based at least in part on the received mission objective and the processed knowledge data; initiating communication with the at least one satellite in the constellation according to the scheduling; receiving updated status information for at least one component of the plurality of components; and storing, in the resource database, the updated status information.

Systems and methods for command and control of satellite constellations

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for adaptively coordinating among satellite communication channels. A method, according to an example implementation of the disclosed technology, can include: receiving, at a radio frequency receiver disposed on a target satellite, a plurality of signals associated with a corresponding plurality of candidate satellite communication channels; detecting, among the plurality of signals, a command structure; selecting, for communications with a first ground station, a first channel of the candidate satellite communication channels, based at least in part, on information in the detected command structure; establishing a communication link with the first ground station using the first channel; receiving, via the first channel, and from the first ground station, one or more downlink instructions; selecting a downlink communication channel based on the received one or more downlink instructions; and transmitting information to the first ground station via the selected downlink communication channel.
