    • value

      double value(double polarAngle, double azimuthAngle)
      Evaluate phase center variation in one signal direction.
      Parameters:
      polarAngle - angle from antenna axial direction (zenith angle for receiver antennas, nadir angle for GNSS satellites antennas)
      azimuthAngle - angle around axial direction, counted from +X to +Y (note that this convention is consistent with Vector3D.getAlpha(), but it is different from TrackingCoordinates.getAzimuth(), so care must be taken when using this for ground receivers)
      Returns:
      phase center variation in the signal direction (m)
