public class AngularSeparationDetector extends AbstractDetector<AngularSeparationDetector>
The main use case for this detector is when the observer is in fact a ground
station, modeled as a TopocentricFrame and when the beacon
is the Sun, for computing
interferences for the telemetry link. Another similar case is when the beacon is
another spacecraft, for interferences computation.
The default handler behavior is to stop
propagation when spacecraft enters the proximity zone. This can be changed by calling
AbstractDetector.withHandler(EventHandler) after construction.

public double g(SpacecraftState s)
This function measures the angular separation between beacon and spacecraft as seen from the observer minus the proximity angle. It therefore triggers decreasing events when the spacecraft enters the proximity zone and increasing events when it leaves the proximity zone.
No shadowing effect is taken into account, so this method is computed and
may trigger events even when the spacecraft is below horizon for an observer
which is a ground station. If such effects must be taken into account the
detector must be associated with a predicate
filter where the predicate function is based on elevation.
