public class TimeStampedFieldPVCoordinatesHermiteInterpolator<KK extends org.hipparchus.CalculusFieldElement<KK>>
extends AbstractFieldTimeInterpolator<TimeStampedFieldPVCoordinates<KK>,KK>

Class using a Hermite interpolator to interpolate time stamped position-velocity-acceleration coordinates.

As this implementation of interpolation is polynomial, it should be used only with small number of interpolation points (about 10-20 points) in order to avoid Runge's phenomenon and numerical problems (including NaN appearing).

Constructor.

As this implementation of interpolation is polynomial, it should be used only with small number of interpolation points (about 10-20 points) in order to avoid Runge's phenomenon and numerical problems (including NaN appearing).

Parameters:

interpolationPoints - number of interpolation points

extrapolationThreshold - extrapolation threshold beyond which the propagation will fail

filter - filter for derivatives from the sample to use in interpolation

Method Detail

getFilter

public CartesianDerivativesFilter getFilter()

filter for derivatives from the sample to use in interpolation.

Returns:

filter for derivatives from the sample to use in interpolation

interpolate

protected TimeStampedFieldPVCoordinates<KK> interpolate(AbstractFieldTimeInterpolator.InterpolationData interpolationData)

Interpolate instance from given interpolation data.

The interpolated instance is created by polynomial Hermite interpolation ensuring velocity remains the exact derivative of position.

Note that even if first time derivatives (velocities) from sample can be ignored, the interpolated instance always includes interpolated derivatives. This feature can be used explicitly to compute these derivatives when it would be too complex to compute them from an analytical formula: just compute a few sample points from the explicit formula and set the derivatives to zero in these sample points, then use interpolation to add derivatives consistent with the positions.

Specified by:

interpolate in class AbstractFieldTimeInterpolator<TimeStampedFieldPVCoordinates<KK extends org.hipparchus.CalculusFieldElement<KK>>,KK extends org.hipparchus.CalculusFieldElement<KK>>

Parameters:

interpolationData - interpolation data

Returns:

interpolated instance from given interpolation data.
