Name

CL_kp_params — Orbit properties with a Keplerian motion (mean motion, period, longitude gap between 2 orbits)

Calling Sequence

   [par] = CL_kp_params(type_output,sma,[mu,om_earth])
   [par1,par2] = CL_kp_params([type_output1,type_output2],sma,[mu,om_earth])
   [par1,par2,par3] = CL_kp_params([type_output1,type_output2 type_output3],sma,[mu,om_earth])
   
   

Description

  • This function computes orbit properties related to the mean Keplerian motion

    type_output can be :

    - 'mm' for the mean motion :

    - 'per' for the period :

    - 'lgap' for the longitude gap between 2 orbits :

    Note : type_output can be an array (example: ['mm' 'nodper'])

  • Last update : 15/10/2009

Parameters

type_output :

array containing outputs to be computed. Available outputs are : 'mm','per','lgap' (1 x Noutput)

sma:

semi major axis [m] (1xN)

mu:

(optional) geocentric gravitational constant [m^3/s^2] (default value is %CL_mu)

om_earth:

(optional) angular rotation speed of the Earth (default is %CL_omEarth)

par:

mean motion, period or longitude gap between 2 orbits [rad/s,s,rad] (1xN)

Examples

// Longitude gap between 2 consecutive orbits :
sma = 7078.e3 ;
[lgap] = CL_kp_params('lgap',sma)

// Mean motion and period
sma = 7078.e3 ;
[mm,per] = CL_kp_params(['mm' 'per'],sma)
