Method Detail

getImpulse

Vector3D getImpulse(SpacecraftState state,
                    boolean isForward)

Method returning the impulse to be applied.

Parameters:

state - state before the maneuver is applied if isForward is true, after otherwise

isForward - flag on propagation direction

Returns:

impulse in satellite's frame

init

default void init(SpacecraftState initialState,
                  AbsoluteDate targetDate)

Method called at start of propagation.

Parameters:

initialState - state at start of propagation

targetDate - target end date

finish

default void finish(SpacecraftState finalState)

Method called at end of propagation.

Parameters:

finalState - state at end of propagation

of

static ImpulseProvider of(Vector3D forwardImpulse)

Get a provider returning a given vector for forward propagation and its opposite for backward. The attitude comes from the state directly.

Parameters:

forwardImpulse - forward impulse vector

Returns:

constant provider
