Constructor Detail

LatitudeExtremumDetector

public LatitudeExtremumDetector(OneAxisEllipsoid body)

Build a new detector.

The new instance uses default values for maximal checking interval (AbstractDetector.DEFAULT_MAXCHECK) and convergence threshold (AbstractDetector.DEFAULT_THRESHOLD).

Parameters:

body - body on which the latitude is defined

LatitudeExtremumDetector

public LatitudeExtremumDetector(double maxCheck,
                                double threshold,
                                OneAxisEllipsoid body)

Build a detector.

Parameters:

maxCheck - maximal checking interval (s)

threshold - convergence threshold (s)

body - body on which the latitude is defined

Method Detail

create

protected LatitudeExtremumDetector create(double newMaxCheck,
                                          double newThreshold,
                                          int newMaxIter,
                                          EventHandler<? super LatitudeExtremumDetector> newHandler)

Build a new instance.

Specified by:

create in class AbstractDetector<LatitudeExtremumDetector>

Parameters:

newMaxCheck - maximum checking interval (s)

newThreshold - convergence threshold (s)

newMaxIter - maximum number of iterations in the event time search

newHandler - event handler to call at event occurrences

Returns:

a new instance of the appropriate sub-type

getBody

public BodyShape getBody()

Get the body on which the geographic zone is defined.

Returns:

body on which the geographic zone is defined

g

public double g(SpacecraftState s)
         throws OrekitException

Compute the value of the detection function.

The value is the spacecraft latitude time derivative.

Specified by:

g in interface EventDetector

Specified by:

g in class AbstractDetector<LatitudeExtremumDetector>

Parameters:

s - the current state information: date, kinematics, attitude

Returns:

spacecraft latitude time derivative

Throws:

OrekitException - if some specific error occurs
