AbstractPropagatorBuilder

protected AbstractPropagatorBuilder(Orbit templateOrbit,
                                    PositionAngleType positionAngleType,
                                    double positionScale,
                                    boolean addDriverForCentralAttraction)

Build a new instance.

The template orbit is used as a model to create initial orbit. It defines the inertial frame, the central attraction coefficient, the orbit type, and is also used together with the positionScale to convert from the normalized parameters used by the callers of this builder to the real orbital parameters. The default attitude provider is aligned with the orbit's inertial frame.

By default, all the orbital parameters drivers are selected, which means that if the builder is used for orbit determination or propagator conversion, all orbital parameters will be estimated. If only a subset of the orbital parameters must be estimated, caller must retrieve the orbital parameters by calling getOrbitalParametersDrivers() and then call setSelected(false).

Parameters:

templateOrbit - reference orbit from which real orbits will be built

positionAngleType - position angle type to use

positionScale - scaling factor used for orbital parameters normalization (typically set to the expected standard deviation of the position)

addDriverForCentralAttraction - if true, a ParameterDriver should be set up for central attraction coefficient

Since:

8.0
