Constructor Detail

SunPointing

public SunPointing(Vector3D firstAxis,
                   Vector3D secondAxis)
            throws PatriusException

Constructor of the sun pointing attitude law. The first direction is the sun-satellite direction, the second direction is the sun poles axis.

Sun is defined by CelestialBodyFactory.getSun() (JPL ephemeris model).

Parameters:

firstAxis - : satellite axis aligned with the first direction.

secondAxis - : satellite axis aligned at best with the second direction.

Throws:

PatriusException - if the sun cannot be built

            throws PatriusException

Constructor of the sun pointing attitude law. The first direction is the sun-satellite direction, the second direction is the normal to the satellite orbit.

Sun is defined by CelestialBodyFactory.getSun() (JPL ephemeris model).

Parameters:

body - : celestial body associated to the satellite orbit.

firstAxis - : satellite axis aligned with the first direction.

secondAxis - : satellite axis aligned at best with the second direction.

Throws:

PatriusException - if the sun cannot be built
