Description
The CovarianceUtilities Object allows a user to calculate a covariance based on a set of states, and calculate random states generated based on a covariance. See the Orbit Determination Guide for more information.
Users cannot create instances of this type of object. However, users can access instances of this object type that have been created indirectly, for example as children of other objects. Users can also access any static properties and methods on this object type.

CalculateCovariance
|
Calculates and returns the covariance of a distribution of states.
|
CalculateMahalanobisDistance
|
Calculates the Mahalanobis distance of the state relative to the mean state given the specified covariance.
|
CalculateMeanAndCovariance
|
Calculates and returns the covariance of a distribution of states. Also, populates the meanState argument with the computed mean state.
|
GetRandomState
|
Returns a random state from a zero-mean Gaussian distribution described by the provided covariance matrix.
|
GetRandomStates
|
Returns multiple randoms state from a zero-mean Gaussian distribution described by the provided covariance matrix. The resulting random states are returned in a column matrix.
