Class AbstractAttitudeEphemerisGenerator

java.lang.Object

fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.attitudes.AbstractAttitudeEphemerisGenerator

Direct Known Subclasses:

FixedStepAttitudeEphemerisGenerator, VariableStepAttitudeEphemerisGenerator

public abstract class AbstractAttitudeEphemerisGenerator
extends Object

This abstract class handles the generation of attitude ephemeris from an attitude laws sequence AttitudeLegsSequence.
The ephemeris generation can be done using a fixed time step or a variable time step, setting the generation time interval (the default value is the time interval of the sequence), and the treatment to apply to the transition points of the sequence (ignore them, compute the attitude of the initial date of the laws, compute the attitude of the initial and final date of the laws).

Parameters:

frame - the frame of the computed attitude ephemeris

Returns:

the attitude ephemeris

Throws:

PatriusException - an orekit exception

generateEphemeris

public SortedSet<Attitude> generateEphemeris(AbsoluteDateInterval ephemerisInterval,
                                             Frame frame)
                                      throws PatriusException

Computes attitude ephemeris using a fixed or variable time step and choosing the interval of validity.

Parameters:

ephemerisInterval - the interval of validity of the ephemeris

frame - the frame of the computed attitude ephemeris

Returns:

the attitude ephemeris

Throws:

PatriusException - an orekit exception

computeStep

protected abstract double computeStep(AbsoluteDate date,
                                      AbsoluteDateInterval ephemerisInterval)
                               throws PatriusException

Computes the step used during attitude ephemeris generation.

Parameters:

date - the date

ephemerisInterval - the interval of validity of the ephemeris

Returns:

the computed step

Throws:

PatriusException - an orekit exception

addLastPoint

protected abstract boolean addLastPoint(AbsoluteDateInterval ephemerisInterval)

Decide if adding the last point of the time interval to the ephemeris list.

Parameters:

ephemerisInterval - the interval of validity of the ephemeris.

Returns:

true if the attitude at the last point has to be computed.
