SingleLayerModelMappingFunction (OREKIT 12.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.orekit.models.earth.ionosphere.SingleLayerModelMappingFunction

All Implemented Interfaces:

IonosphericMappingFunction
```
public class SingleLayerModelMappingFunction
extends Object
implements IonosphericMappingFunction
```
Single Layer Model (SLM) ionospheric mapping function.
The SLM mapping function assumes a single ionospheric layer with a constant height for the computation of the mapping factor.
