public class AdapterPropagator
extends AbstractPropagator

Orbit propagator that adapts an underlying propagator, adding differential effects.

This propagator is used when a reference propagator does not handle some effects that we need. A typical example would be an ephemeris that was computed for a reference orbit, and we want to compute a station-keeping maneuver on top of this ephemeris, changing its final state. The principal is to add one or more small maneuvers analytical models to it and use it as a new propagator, which takes the maneuvers into account.

From a space flight dynamics point of view, this is a differential correction approach. From a computer science point of view, this is a use of the decorator design pattern.

Constructor Detail

AdapterPropagator

public AdapterPropagator(Propagator referenceIn)

Build a propagator from an underlying reference propagator.

The reference propagator can be almost anything, numerical, analytical, and even an ephemeris. It may already take some maneuvers into account.

Parameters:

referenceIn - reference propagator

Method Detail

addEffect

public void addEffect(AdapterPropagator.DifferentialEffect effect)

Add a differential effect.

Parameters:

effect - differential effect

getPropagator

public Propagator getPropagator()

Get the reference propagator.

Returns:

reference propagator

getEffects

public List<AdapterPropagator.DifferentialEffect> getEffects()

Get the differential effects.

Returns:

differential effects models, as an unmodifiable list

getInitialState

public SpacecraftState getInitialState()
                                throws PatriusException

Get the propagator initial state.

Specified by:

getInitialState in interface Propagator

Overrides:

getInitialState in class AbstractPropagator

Returns:

initial state

Throws:

PatriusException - if state cannot be retrieved

resetInitialState

public void resetInitialState(SpacecraftState state)
                       throws PropagationException

Reset the propagator initial state.

Specified by:

resetInitialState in interface Propagator

Overrides:

resetInitialState in class AbstractPropagator

Parameters:

state - new initial state to consider

Throws:

PropagationException - if initial state cannot be reset

basicPropagate

protected SpacecraftState basicPropagate(AbsoluteDate date)
                                  throws PropagationException

Propagate an orbit without any fancy features.

This method is similar in spirit to the AbstractPropagator.propagate(fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.time.AbsoluteDate) method, except that it does not call any handler during propagation, nor any discrete events. It always stop exactly at the specified date.

Overrides:

basicPropagate in class AbstractPropagator

Parameters:

date - target date for propagation

Returns:

state at specified date

Throws:

PropagationException - if propagation cannot reach specified date

propagateOrbit

protected Orbit propagateOrbit(AbsoluteDate date)
                        throws PropagationException

Extrapolate an orbit up to a specific target date.

Specified by:

propagateOrbit in class AbstractPropagator

Parameters:

date - target date for the orbit

Returns:

extrapolated parameters

Throws:

PropagationException - if some parameters are out of bounds
