Class FixedDelayModel

java.lang.Object

fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.models.earth.FixedDelayModel

All Implemented Interfaces:

TroposphericCorrection, Serializable

public class FixedDelayModel
extends Object
implements TroposphericCorrection

A static tropospheric model that interpolates the actual tropospheric delay based on values read from a configuration file (tropospheric-delay.txt) via the DataProvidersManager.

Constructor Detail

FixedDelayModel

public FixedDelayModel(double[] xArrIn,
                       double[] yArrIn,
                       double[][] fArrIn,
                       double heightIn)

Creates a new FixedDelayModel instance.

Parameters:

xArrIn - abscissa grid for the interpolation function

yArrIn - ordinate grid for the interpolation function

fArrIn - values samples for the interpolation function

heightIn - the height of the station in m above sea level [m]

FixedDelayModel

public FixedDelayModel(String supportedName,
                       double heightIn)
                throws PatriusException

Creates a new FixedDelayModel instance, and loads the delay values from the given resource via the DataProvidersManager.

Parameters:

supportedName - a regular expression for supported resource names

heightIn - the height of the station in m above sea level [m]

Throws:

PatriusException - if the resource could not be loaded

Method Detail

getDefaultModel

public static FixedDelayModel getDefaultModel(double height)
                                       throws PatriusException

Returns the default model, loading delay values from the file "tropospheric-delay.txt".

Parameters:

height - the height of the station in m above sea level [m]

Returns:

the default model

Throws:

PatriusException - if the file could not be loaded

computePathDelay

public double computePathDelay(double elevation)

Calculates the tropospheric path delay for the signal path from a ground station to a satellite.

Parameters:

elevation - the elevation of the satellite [rad]

Returns:

the path delay due to the troposphere [m]

computeSignalDelay

public double computeSignalDelay(double elevation)

Calculates the tropospheric signal delay for the signal path from a ground station to a satellite.

Specified by:

computeSignalDelay in interface TroposphericCorrection

Parameters:

elevation - the elevation of the satellite [rad]

Returns:

the signal delay due to the troposphere [s]
