Package org.orekit.time

Class GLONASSScale

java.lang.Object
org.orekit.time.GLONASSScale
All Implemented Interfaces:
TimeScale
public class GLONASSScale extends Object implements TimeScale
GLONASS time scale.

By convention, TGLONASS = UTC + 3 hours.

The time scale is defined in Global Navigation Sattelite System GLONASS - Interface Control document, version 5.1 2008 (the typo in the title is in the original document title).

This is intended to be accessed thanks to TimeScales, so there is no public constructor.

    • insideLeap

      public boolean insideLeap(AbsoluteDate date)
      Check if date is within a leap second introduction in this time scale.

      This method will return false for all time scales that do not implement leap seconds, even if the date corresponds to a leap second in UTC scale.

      Specified by:
      insideLeap in interface TimeScale
      Parameters:
      date - date to check
      Returns:
      true if time is within a leap second introduction

    • insideLeap

      public <T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>> boolean insideLeap(FieldAbsoluteDate<T> date)
      Check if date is within a leap second introduction in this time scale.

      This method will return false for all time scales that do not implement leap seconds, even if the date corresponds to a leap second in UTC scale.

      Specified by:
      insideLeap in interface TimeScale
      Type Parameters:
      T - type of the filed elements
      Parameters:
      date - date to check
      Returns:
      true if time is within a leap second introduction

    • minuteDuration

      public int minuteDuration(AbsoluteDate date)
      Check length of the current minute in this time scale.

      This method will return 60 for all time scales that do not implement leap seconds, even if the date corresponds to a leap second in UTC scale, and 61 for time scales that do implement leap second when the current date is within the last minute before the leap, or during the leap itself.

      Specified by:
      minuteDuration in interface TimeScale
      Parameters:
      date - date to check
      Returns:
      60 or 61 depending on leap seconds introduction

    • minuteDuration

      public <T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>> int minuteDuration(FieldAbsoluteDate<T> date)
      Check length of the current minute in this time scale.

      This method will return 60 for all time scales that do not implement leap seconds, even if the date corresponds to a leap second in UTC scale, and 61 for time scales that do implement leap second when the current date is within the last minute before the leap, or during the leap itself.

      Specified by:
      minuteDuration in interface TimeScale
      Type Parameters:
      T - type of the filed elements
      Parameters:
      date - date to check
      Returns:

      This method will return 0 for all time scales that do not implement leap seconds.

      Specified by:
      getLeap in interface TimeScale
      Parameters:
      date - date to check
      Returns:
      value of the previous leap

    • getLeap

      public <T extends CalculusFieldElement<T>> T getLeap(FieldAbsoluteDate<T> date)
