Class KeplerianOrbit

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, PositionAngleBased, TimeShiftable<Orbit>, TimeStamped, PVCoordinatesProvider

    public class KeplerianOrbit
    extends Orbit
    implements PositionAngleBased
    This class handles traditional Keplerian orbital parameters.

    The parameters used internally are the classical Keplerian elements:

         a
         e
         i
         ω
         Ω
         v
       
    where ω stands for the Perigee Argument, Ω stands for the Right Ascension of the Ascending Node and v stands for the true anomaly.

    This class supports hyperbolic orbits, using the convention that semi major axis is negative for such orbits (and of course eccentricity is greater than 1).

    When orbit is either equatorial or circular, some Keplerian elements (more precisely ω and Ω) become ambiguous so this class should not be used for such orbits. For this reason, equinoctial orbits is the recommended way to represent orbits.

    The instance KeplerianOrbit is guaranteed to be immutable.

The shifting model is a Keplerian one if no derivatives are available in the orbit, or Keplerian plus quadratic effect of the non-Keplerian acceleration if derivatives are available. Shifting is not intended as a replacement for proper orbit propagation but should be sufficient for small time shifts or coarse accuracy.

        shiftedBy in interface TimeShiftable<Orbit>
        Specified by:
        shiftedBy in class Orbit
        Parameters:
        dt - time shift in seconds
        Returns:
        a new orbit, shifted with respect to the instance (which is immutable)
      • computeJacobianMeanWrtCartesian

        protected double[][] computeJacobianMeanWrtCartesian()
        Compute the Jacobian of the orbital parameters with mean angle with respect to the Cartesian parameters.

        Element jacobian[i][j] is the derivative of parameter i of the orbit with respect to Cartesian coordinate j. This means each row correspond to one orbital parameter whereas columns 0 to 5 correspond to the Cartesian coordinates x, y, z, xDot, yDot and zDot.

        The array returned by this method will not be modified.

        Specified by:
        computeJacobianMeanWrtCartesian in class Orbit
        Returns:
        6x6 Jacobian matrix

      • computeJacobianEccentricWrtCartesian

        protected double[][] computeJacobianEccentricWrtCartesian()
        Compute the Jacobian of the orbital parameters with eccentric angle with respect to the Cartesian parameters.

        Element jacobian[i][j] is the derivative of parameter i of the orbit with respect to Cartesian coordinate j. This means each row correspond to one orbital parameter whereas columns 0 to 5 correspond to the Cartesian coordinates x, y, z, xDot, yDot and zDot.

        protected double[][] computeJacobianTrueWrtCartesian()
        Compute the Jacobian of the orbital parameters with true angle with respect to the Cartesian parameters.

        Element jacobian[i][j] is the derivative of parameter i of the orbit with respect to Cartesian coordinate j. This means each row correspond to one orbital parameter whereas columns 0 to 5 correspond to the Cartesian coordinates x, y, z, xDot, yDot and zDot.

      • addKeplerContribution

        public void addKeplerContribution​(PositionAngleType type,
                                          double gm,
                                          double[] pDot)
        Add the contribution of the Keplerian motion to parameters derivatives

        This method is used by integration-based propagators to evaluate the part of Keplerian motion to evolution of the orbital state.

        Specified by:
        addKeplerContribution in class Orbit
        Parameters:
        type - type of the position angle in the state
        gm - attraction coefficient to use
        pDot - array containing orbital state derivatives to update (the Keplerian part must be added to the array components, as the array may already contain some non-zero elements corresponding to non-Keplerian parts)
      • toString

        public String toString()
        Returns a string representation of this Keplerian parameters object.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
        Returns:
        a string representation of this object
      • hasRates

        public boolean hasRates()
        Tells whether the instance holds rates (first-order time derivatives) for dependent variables.
        Specified by:
        hasRates in interface PositionAngleBased
        Returns:
        true if and only if holding rates
