fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.attitudes.TargetGroundPointing

All Implemented Interfaces:

AttitudeLaw, AttitudeProvider, Serializable

public class TargetGroundPointing
extends GroundPointing

This class handles target pointing attitude provider; while the class TargetPointing does not guarantee the target point belongs to the body surface, this class always provides a ground point target.

The satellite z axis is pointing to a ground point target.

TargetGroundPointing

public TargetGroundPointing(BodyShape shape,
                    GeodeticPoint targetGeo)

Creates a new instance from body shape and target expressed in geodetic coordinates.

Parameters:

shape - body shape

targetGeo - target defined as a geodetic point in body shape frame

Method Detail

getTargetPoint

protected Vector3D getTargetPoint(PVCoordinatesProvider pvProv,
                      AbsoluteDate date,
                      Frame frame)
                           throws PatriusException

Compute the target point in specified frame.

Specified by:

getTargetPoint in class GroundPointing

Parameters:

pvProv - provider for PV coordinates

date - date at which target point is requested

frame - frame in which observed ground point should be provided

Returns:

observed ground point position in specified frame

Throws:

PatriusException - if some specific error occurs, such as no target reached
