org.orekit.propagation.events.FieldAbstractDetector<FieldEclipseDetector<T>,T>

org.orekit.propagation.events.FieldEclipseDetector<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

FieldEventDetector<T>

public class FieldEclipseDetector<T extends RealFieldElement<T>>
extends FieldAbstractDetector<FieldEclipseDetector<T>,T>

Finder for satellite eclipse related events.

This class finds eclipse events, i.e. satellite within umbra (total eclipse) or penumbra (partial eclipse).

The default implementation behavior is to continue propagation when entering the eclipse and to stop propagation when exiting the eclipse. This can be changed by calling FieldAbstractDetector.withHandler(FieldEventHandler) after construction.

FieldEclipseDetector

public FieldEclipseDetector(PVCoordinatesProvider occulted,
                            double occultedRadius,
                            PVCoordinatesProvider occulting,
                            double occultingRadius,
                            Field<T> field)

Build a new eclipse detector.

The new instance is a total eclipse (umbra) detector with default values for maximal checking interval (FieldAbstractDetector.DEFAULT_MAXCHECK) and convergence threshold (FieldAbstractDetector.DEFAULT_THRESHOLD).

Parameters:

occulted - the body to be occulted

occultedRadius - the radius of the body to be occulted (m)

occulting - the occulting body

occultingRadius - the occulting body radius (m)

field - field used by default

FieldEclipseDetector

public FieldEclipseDetector(T maxCheck,
                            PVCoordinatesProvider occulted,
                            double occultedRadius,
                            PVCoordinatesProvider occulting,
                            double occultingRadius)

Build a new eclipse detector.

The new instance is a total eclipse (umbra) detector with default value for convergence threshold (FieldAbstractDetector.DEFAULT_THRESHOLD).

The maximal interval between eclipse checks should be smaller than the half duration of the minimal pass to handle, otherwise some short passes could be missed.

Parameters:

maxCheck - maximal checking interval (s)

occulted - the body to be occulted

occultedRadius - the radius of the body to be occulted in meters

occulting - the occulting body

occultingRadius - the occulting body radius in meters

FieldEclipseDetector

public FieldEclipseDetector(T maxCheck,
                            T threshold,
                            PVCoordinatesProvider occulted,
                            double occultedRadius,
                            PVCoordinatesProvider occulting,
                            double occultingRadius)

Build a new eclipse detector.

The new instance is a total eclipse (umbra) detector.

The maximal interval between eclipse checks should be smaller than the half duration of the minimal pass to handle, otherwise some short passes could be missed.

Parameters:

maxCheck - maximal checking interval (s)

threshold - convergence threshold (s)

occulted - the body to be occulted

occultedRadius - the radius of the body to be occulted in meters

occulting - the occulting body

occultingRadius - the occulting body radius in meters

withUmbra()

getOcculting

public PVCoordinatesProvider getOcculting()

Get the occulting body.

Returns:

the occulting body

getOccultingRadius

g

public T g(FieldSpacecraftState<T> s)
