Optimizing a constellation of space, air, and ground assets is typically a man-in-the-loop intensive and iterative process. Designers must originate a few baseline concepts and then intuitively explore design variations within a large multi-dimensional trade space. To keep the search manageable, options and variations are often severely limited. There is a clear advantage to automate, in an intelligent and efficient manner, this search for optimal design solutions. Such automation would greatly open the analyzable options, increasing insight, improving solutions, and saving money. For this reason, Boeing has initiated a software application that automates STK® scenarios and intelligently searches for optimal solutions. Now in the post-prototype stages of development, “AVA” has provided extremely valuable solutions and insight into several space-based architectures and their proposed payloads. This paper will discuss the current state of the AVA tool, methods, applicability, and the potential for future growth.
