      • ObservableSatellite

        public ObservableSatellite​(int propagatorIndex)
        Simple constructor.
        Parameters:
        propagatorIndex - index of the propagator related to this satellite
    • Method Detail

      • getPropagatorIndex

        public int getPropagatorIndex()
        Get the index of the propagator related to this satellite.
        Returns:
        index of the propagator related to this satellite
      • getClockOffsetDriver

        public ParameterDriver getClockOffsetDriver()
        Get the clock offset parameter driver.

        The offset value is defined as the value in seconds that must be subtracted from the satellite clock reading of time to compute the real physical date. The offset is therefore negative if the satellite clock is slow and positive if it is fast.

        Returns:
        clock offset parameter driver
      • getClockDriftDriver

        public ParameterDriver getClockDriftDriver()
        Get the clock drift parameter driver.

        The drift is negative if the satellite clock is slowing down and positive if it is speeding up.

        Returns:
        clock offset parameter driver
