fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.attitudes.IsisSunPointing

All Implemented Interfaces:

AttitudeLaw, AttitudeProvider, Serializable

public class IsisSunPointing
extends AbstractAttitudeLaw

Implementation of ISIS Sun pointing attitude law. This class implements AttitudeProvider, so the associated service AttitudeProvider.getAttitude(PVCoordinatesProvider, AbsoluteDate, Frame) is available. ISIS Sun pointing law corresponds to an ordered attitude matching with the Sun axis (X_sun, Y_sun, Z_sun) computed in GCRF frame by specific formulae.

Constructor Detail

IsisSunPointing

public IsisSunPointing(IDirection sunDir)
                throws PatriusException

Build a new instance of the class.

Parameters:

sunDir - the Sun direction in the inertial frame

Throws:

PatriusException - if the Sun cannot be built

sunBody - the Sun body.

Method Detail

getAttitude

public Attitude getAttitude(PVCoordinatesProvider pvProv,
                            AbsoluteDate date,
                            Frame frame)
                     throws PatriusException

Compute the attitude corresponding to an orbital state.

Parameters:

pvProv - local position-velocity provider around current date

date - current date

frame - reference frame from which attitude is computed

Returns:

attitude attitude on the specified date and position-velocity state

Throws:

PatriusException - if attitude cannot be computed
