Class LatitudeExtremumDetector

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    EventDetector

    public class LatitudeExtremumDetector
    extends AbstractDetector<LatitudeExtremumDetector>
    Detector for geographic latitude extremum.

    This detector identifies when a spacecraft reaches its extremum latitudes with respect to a central body.

      • 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

        protected LatitudeExtremumDetector​(EventDetectionSettings detectionSettings,
                                           EventHandler handler,
                                           OneAxisEllipsoid body)
        Protected constructor with full parameters.

        This constructor is not public as users are expected to use the builder API with the various withXxx() methods to set up the instance in a readable manner without using a huge amount of parameters.

        Parameters:
        detectionSettings - event detection settings
        handler - event handler to call at event occurrences
        body - body on which the latitude is defined
    • Method Detail

      • 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)
        Compute the value of the detection function.

        The value is the spacecraft latitude time derivative.

        Parameters:
        s - the current state information: date, kinematics, attitude
        Returns:
        spacecraft latitude time derivative
