FiniteBurnODProperties.ThrustScaleFactor Property

Top 

Description

The ThrustScaleFactor property represents the scale factor of the unit thrust vector and contains all of that quantity's associated OD statistics (Sigma, Process Noise, State Update, etc.).

 

The estimation of thrust events consists of three correction factors that define the direction of the thrust in the burn frame. These are a multiplicative scale factor (ThrustScaleFactor) and two directional corrections represented by the ThrustOffsetDeltaX and ThrustOffsetDeltaY properties. The properties are estimated to account for the misalignment of the burn from the nominal burn direction. ThrustOffsetDeltaX and ThrustOffsetDeltaY are represented as ΔX and ΔY in the equation and diagram below, where Pt is the unit thrust vector.
