Method Detail

copy

PropagatorBuilder copy()

Create a new instance identical to this one.

Returns:

new instance identical to this one WARNING: this method will be removed in 13.0. It doesn't have the deprecated annotation because the method is abstract and shall be implemented.

buildPropagator

Propagator buildPropagator(double[] normalizedParameters)

Build a propagator.

Parameters:

normalizedParameters - normalized values for the selected parameters

Returns:

an initialized propagator

buildPropagator

default Propagator buildPropagator()

Build a propagator from current value of selected normalized parameters.

Returns:

an initialized propagator

buildLeastSquaresModel

AbstractBatchLSModel buildLeastSquaresModel(PropagatorBuilder[] builders,
                                            List<ObservedMeasurement<?>> measurements,
                                            ParameterDriversList estimatedMeasurementsParameters,
                                            ModelObserver observer)

Build a new batch least squares model.

Parameters:

builders - builders to use for propagation

measurements - measurements

estimatedMeasurementsParameters - estimated measurements parameters

observer - observer to be notified at model calls

Returns:

a new model for the Batch Least Squares orbit determination

Since:

12.0

getSelectedNormalizedParameters

double[] getSelectedNormalizedParameters()

Get the current value of selected normalized parameters.

Returns:

current value of selected normalized parameters

getOrbitType

OrbitType getOrbitType()

Get the orbit type expected for the 6 first parameters in buildPropagator(double[]).

Returns:

orbit type to use in buildPropagator(double[])

Since:

7.1

getPositionAngleType

PositionAngleType getPositionAngleType()

Get the position angle type expected for the 6 first parameters in buildPropagator(double[]).

Returns:

position angle type to use in buildPropagator(double[])

Returns:

frame in which the orbit is propagated

getMu

double getMu()

Returns:

the central attraction coefficient (µ - m³/s²) value

Since:
