Class LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector

All Implemented Interfaces:
EventDetector

public class LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector extends AbstractGeographicalDetector<LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector>
Detector for geographic longitude crossing.

This detector identifies when a spacecraft crosses a fixed longitude range with respect to a central body.

  • Constructor Details

    • LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector

      public LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector(BodyShape body, double fromLongitude, double toLongitude)
      Build a new detector.

      The new instance uses default values for maximal checking interval (AbstractDetector.DEFAULT_MAX_CHECK) and convergence threshold (AbstractDetector.DEFAULT_THRESHOLD).

      Parameters:
      body - body on which the longitude is defined
      fromLongitude - longitude to be crossed, lower range boundary
      toLongitude - longitude to be crossed, upper range boundary
    • LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector

      public LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector(double maxCheck, double threshold, BodyShape body, double fromLongitude, double toLongitude)
      Build a detector.
      Parameters:
      maxCheck - maximal checking interval (s)
      threshold - convergence threshold (s)
      body - body on which the longitude is defined
      fromLongitude - longitude to be crossed, lower range boundary
      toLongitude - longitude to be crossed, upper range boundary
    • LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector

      protected LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector(EventDetectionSettings detectionSettings, EventHandler handler, BodyShape body, double fromLongitude, double toLongitude)
      Private constructor with full parameters.

      This constructor is private as users are expected to use the builder API with the various withXxx() methods to set up the instance in a readable manner without using a huge amount of parameters.

      Parameters:
      detectionSettings - event detection settings
      handler - event handler to call at event occurrences
      body - body on which the longitude is defined
      fromLongitude - longitude to be crossed, lower range boundary
      toLongitude - longitude to be crossed, upper range boundary
      Since:
      13.0
  • Method Details

    • create

      protected LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector create(EventDetectionSettings detectionSettings, EventHandler newHandler)
      Build a new instance.
      Specified by:
      create in class AbstractDetector<LongitudeRangeCrossingDetector>
      Parameters:
      detectionSettings - detection settings
      newHandler - event handler to call at event occurrences
      Returns:
      a new instance of the appropriate sub-type
    • getFromLongitude

      public double getFromLongitude()
      Get the fixed longitude range to be crossed (radians), lower boundary.
      Returns:
      fixed lower boundary longitude range to be crossed (radians)
    • getToLongitude

      public double getToLongitude()
      Get the fixed longitude range to be crossed (radians), upper boundary.
      Returns:
      fixed upper boundary longitude range to be crossed (radians)
    • g

      public double g(SpacecraftState s)
      Compute the value of the detection function.

      The value is positive if the spacecraft longitude is inside the longitude range. The longitude value is reflected from [-PI, +PI] to [0, 2 PI] to ensure continuity.

      Parameters:
      s - the current state information: date, kinematics, attitude
      Returns:
      positive if spacecraft inside the range
