public class TDOA
extends DualReceiverMeasurement<TDOA>

Class modeling a Time Difference of Arrival measurement with a satellite as emitter and two observers as receivers.

TDOA measures the difference in signal arrival time between the emitter and receivers, corresponding to a difference in ranges from the two receivers to the emitter.

The date of the measurement corresponds to the reception of the signal by the prime station. The measurement corresponds to the date of the measurement minus the date of reception of the signal by the second station: tdoa = tr1 - tr2

The motion of the sensors and the satellite during the signal flight time are taken into account.

Method Details

theoreticalEvaluationWithoutDerivatives

protected EstimatedMeasurementBase<TDOA> theoreticalEvaluationWithoutDerivatives(int iteration,
 int evaluation,
 SpacecraftState[] states,
 boolean fillParticipants)

Estimate the theoretical value without derivatives. The default implementation uses the computation with derivatives and ought to be overwritten for performance.

The theoretical value does not have any modifiers applied.

Overrides:

theoreticalEvaluationWithoutDerivatives in class AbstractMeasurement<TDOA>

Parameters:

iteration - iteration number

evaluation - evaluation number

states - orbital states at measurement date

fillParticipants - flag to compute and store participants dynamical states at measurement date and along signal path if applicable

Returns:

theoretical value

See Also:

• AbstractMeasurement.estimate(int, int, SpacecraftState[])

theoreticalEvaluation

protected EstimatedMeasurement<TDOA> theoreticalEvaluation(int iteration,
 int evaluation,
 SpacecraftState[] states)

Estimate the theoretical value.

The theoretical value does not have any modifiers applied.

Specified by:

theoreticalEvaluation in class AbstractMeasurement<TDOA>

Parameters:

iteration - iteration number

evaluation - evaluation number

states - orbital states at measurement date

Returns:

theoretical value
