HCW.SetReferenceOrbit Method

Top 

Description

Sets the reference orbit of the calling HCW propagator. The reference orbit will be propagated with a two body (Keplerian) propagator when this Spacecraft is stepped.

 

Timing Precision Mode

This page describes functionality in millisecond timing precision mode. Millisecond timing precision mode is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. We recommend that you migrate your Mission Plans to nanosecond timing precision mode.

Description

HCW.SetReferenceOrbit(Array referenceOrbit)

None

Sets the reference orbit of the HCW propagator using the specified Keplerian orbital elements (A, E, I, RAAN, W, TA) with respect to the ICRF. The reference orbit will be propagated with a two body (Keplerian) propagator when this Spacecraft is stepped.

HCW.SetReferenceOrbit(Spacecraft referenceSpacecraft)

None

Sets the reference orbit of the HCW propagator by copying the current Keplerian state from the specified referenceSpacecraft. The reference orbit will be propagated with a two body (Keplerian) propagator when this Spacecraft is stepped.

HCW.SetReferenceOrbit(Array referenceOrbit, Variable referenceEpoch)

None

Sets the reference orbit of the HCW propagator using the specified Keplerian orbital elements (A, E, I, RAAN, W, TA) with respect to the ICRF. The reference orbit will be propagated with a two body (Keplerian) propagator when this Spacecraft is stepped. The epoch argument is optional; in the event that an epoch is not provided, the referenceOrbit will use the calling Spacecraft's epoch.
