    public class TurnAroundRange
    extends SignalBasedMeasurement<TurnAroundRange>
    Class modeling a turn-around range measurement using a primary observer and a secondary observer.

    The measurement is considered to be a signal: - Emitted from the primary observer - Reflected on the spacecraft - Reflected on the secondary observer - Reflected on the spacecraft again - Received on the primary observer Its value is the elapsed time between emission and reception divided by 2c were c is the speed of light. The motion of the stations and the spacecraft during the signal flight time are taken into account. The date of the measurement corresponds to the reception on ground of the reflected signal.
