Interface PropagatorConverter

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractPropagatorConverter, FiniteDifferencePropagatorConverter, JacobianPropagatorConverter

public interface PropagatorConverter

This interface is the top-level abstraction for propagators conversions.

It provides a way to convert a given propagator or a set of SpacecraftState into a wanted propagator that minimize the mean square error over a time span.

Method Detail

convert

Propagator convert(Propagator source,
                 double timeSpan,
                 int nbPoints,
                 Collection<String> freeParameters)
                   throws OrekitException

timeSpan - time span considered for conversion

nbPoints - number of points for sampling over the time span

freeParameters - names of the free parameters

Returns:

adapted propagator

Throws:

OrekitException - if propagator cannot be adapted
