public class Phase
extends AbstractMeasurement<Phase>

Class modeling a phase measurement from a ground station.

The measurement is considered to be a signal emitted from a spacecraft and received on a ground station. Its value is the number of cycles between emission and reception. The motion of both the station and the spacecraft during the signal flight time are taken into account. The date of the measurement corresponds to the reception on ground of the emitted signal.

WARNING: as of release 9.2, this feature is still considered experimental

Since:

9.2

Constructor Detail

Phase

public Phase(GroundStation station,
             AbsoluteDate date,
             double phase,
             double wavelength,
             double sigma,
             double baseWeight)
      throws OrekitException

Simple constructor.

This constructor uses 0 as the index of the propagator related to this measurement, thus being well suited for mono-satellite orbit determination.

Parameters:

station - ground station from which measurement is performed

date - date of the measurement

phase - observed value

wavelength - phase observed value wavelength

sigma - theoretical standard deviation

baseWeight - base weight

Throws:

OrekitException - if a ParameterDriver name conflict occurs

Phase

public Phase(GroundStation station,
             AbsoluteDate date,
             double phase,
             double wavelength,
             double sigma,
             double baseWeight,
             int propagatorIndex)
      throws OrekitException

Simple constructor.

Parameters:

station - ground station from which measurement is performed

date - date of the measurement

phase - observed value

wavelength - phase observed value wavelength

sigma - theoretical standard deviation

baseWeight - base weight

propagatorIndex - index of the propagator related to this measurement

Throws:

OrekitException - if a ParameterDriver name conflict occurs

Method Detail

getStation

public GroundStation getStation()

Get the ground station from which measurement is performed.

Returns:

ground station from which measurement is performed

theoreticalEvaluation

protected EstimatedMeasurement<Phase> theoreticalEvaluation(int iteration,
                                                            int evaluation,
                                                            SpacecraftState[] states)
                                                     throws OrekitException

Estimate the theoretical value.

The theoretical value does not have any modifiers applied.

Specified by:

theoreticalEvaluation in class AbstractMeasurement<Phase>

Parameters:

iteration - iteration number

evaluation - evaluation number

states - orbital states at measurement date

Returns:

theoretical value

Throws:

OrekitException - if value cannot be computed
