Abstract: Electronic reconnaissance satellite holds a significantly important role in the fields of antiterrorism and salvage.In order to meet the area target electromagnetic detecting needs for electronic reconnaissance satellites，an area covering-oriented electronic reconnaissance satellite scheduling technique is proposed，which synthetically considers the constraints of both the satellites and ground stations，and the corresponding system is designed and implemented.Based on the detailed problem modeling analyses，the system architecture and scheduling process are designed.The pivotal techniques in every functional module are introduced，including especially the detecting action building based on the mechanism of multi-objective evolution and transmitting action building based on parallel JSP model.A practical simulation example is presented，which in both the reconnaissance scheduling and transmission scheduling aspects demonstrate the validity and adaptability of the given system in solving the scheduling problem of area covering-oriented electronic reconnaissance satellites.The effect of the system has been testified in a practical aeronautic project.
