Constructor Detail

FixedTroposphericDelay

public FixedTroposphericDelay(double[] xArr,
                              double[] yArr,
                              double[][] fArr)

Creates a new FixedTroposphericDelay instance.

Parameters:

xArr - abscissa grid for the interpolation function

yArr - ordinate grid for the interpolation function

fArr - values samples for the interpolation function

FixedTroposphericDelay

public FixedTroposphericDelay(String supportedName)

Creates a new FixedTroposphericDelay instance, and loads the delay values from the given resource via the DataProvidersManager.

Parameters:

supportedName - a regular expression for supported resource names

Method Detail

getDefaultModel

public static FixedTroposphericDelay getDefaultModel()

Returns the default model, loading delay values from the file "tropospheric-delay.txt".

Returns:

the default model

pathDelay

public double pathDelay(double elevation,
                        double height)

Calculates the tropospheric path delay for the signal path from a ground station to a satellite.

Specified by:

pathDelay in interface TroposphericModel

Parameters:

elevation - the elevation of the satellite, in radians

height - the height of the station in m above sea level

Returns:

the path delay due to the troposphere in m
