Function to simulate observations from set observation simulators and observation simulator settings. Automatically iterates over all provided observation simulators, generating the full set of simulated observations.

Parameters:
  • observation_to_simulate (List[ ObservationSimulationSettings ]) – List of settings objects, each object providing the observation time settings for simulating one type of observable and link end set.

  • observation_simulators (List[ ObservationSimulator ]) – List of ObservationSimulator objects, each object hosting the functionality for simulating one type of observable and link end set.

compute_target_angles_and_range(bodies: tudatpy.kernel.numerical_simulation.environment.SystemOfBodies, station_id: tuple[str, str], target_body: str, observation_times: list[float], is_station_transmitting: bool) dict[float, numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, 1]]]

Function to compute the azimuth angle, elevation angle and range at a ground station.

Function to compute the azimuth angle, elevation angle and range at a ground station. This functions is provided as a function of convenience, to prevent users having to manually define the relevant settings for this often-needed functionality. This function takes an observing station and a target body as input, and provides the observed angles and current range (without correction for aberrations, with correction for light time) as observed at that station

Parameters:
  • bodies (SystemOfBodies) – System of bodies that defines the full physical environment

  • station_id (tuple[ str, str]) – Identifier for the observing station, as a pair of strings: the body name and the station name.

  • target_body (str) – Name of body which is observed by ground station

  • observation_times (list[float]) – List of times at which the ground station observations are to be analyzed

  • is_station_transmitting (Bool) – Boolean defining whether the observation times define times at which the station is transmitting to, or receiving from, the ground station. This has an impact on the whether the light-time is computed forward or backward in time from the ground station to the target

Returns:

Dictionary with the required output. Key defines the observation time, the value is an array of size three containing entry 0 - elevation angle, entry 1 - azimuth angle, entry 2 - range

propagate_covariance(initial_covariance: numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, n]], state_transition_interface: tudatpy.kernel.numerical_simulation.estimation.CombinedStateTransitionAndSensitivityMatrixInterface, output_times: list[float]) dict[float, numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, n]]]

Function to propagate system covariance through time.

Function to propagate the covariance of a given system through time. The system dynamics and numerical settings of the propagation are prescribed by the state_transition_interface parameter.

Parameters:
  • initial_covariance (numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, n]]) – System covariance matrix (symmetric and positive semi-definite) at initial time. Dimensions have to be consistent with estimatable parameters in the system (specified by state_transition_interface)

  • state_transition_interface (CombinedStateTransitionAndSensitivityMatrixInterface) – Interface to the variational equations of the system dynamics, handling the propagation of the covariance matrix through time.

  • output_times (List[ float ]) – Times at which the propagated covariance matrix shall be reported. Note that this argument has no impact on the integration time-steps of the covariance propagation, which always adheres to the integrator settings that the state_transition_interface links to. Output times which do not coincide with integration time steps are calculated via interpolation.

Returns:

Dictionary reporting the propagated covariances at each output time.

Return type:

Function to propagate system formal errors through time.

Function to propagate the formal errors of a given system through time. Note that in practice the entire covariance matrix is propagated, but only the formal errors (variances) are reported at the output times. The system dynamics and numerical settings of the propagation are prescribed by the state_transition_interface parameter.

Parameters:
  • initial_covariance (numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, n]]) – System covariance matrix (symmetric and positive semi-definite) at initial time. Dimensions have to be consistent with estimatable parameters in the system (specified by state_transition_interface)

  • state_transition_interface (CombinedStateTransitionAndSensitivityMatrixInterface) – Interface to the variational equations of the system dynamics, handling the propagation of the covariance matrix through time.

  • output_times (List[ float ]) – Times at which the propagated covariance matrix shall be reported. Note that this argument has no impact on the integration time-steps of the covariance propagation, which always adheres to the integrator settings that the state_transition_interface links to. Output times which do not coincide with integration time steps are calculated via interpolation.

Returns:

Dictionary reporting the propagated formal errors at each output time.

Return type:

Class constructor.

Constructor through which the user can create instances of this class. Note that the weight are all initiated as 1.0, and the default settings of define_covariance_settings are used.

Parameters:
  • observations_and_times (ObservationCollection) – Total data structure of observations and associated times/link ends/type/etc.

  • inverse_apriori_covariance (numpy.ndarray[numpy.float64[m, n]], default = [ ]) – A priori covariance matrix (unnormalized) of estimated parameters. This should be either a size 0x0 matrix (no a priori information), or a square matrix with the same size as the number of parameters that are considered

Return type:

Function to define specific settings for covariance analysis process

Parameters:
  • reintegrate_equations (bool, default = True) – Boolean denoting whether the dynamics and variational equations are to be reintegrated or if existing values are to be used to perform first iteration.

  • reintegrate_variational_equations (bool, default = True) – Boolean denoting whether the variational equations are to be reintegrated during estimation (if this is set to False, and reintegrate_equations to true, only the dynamics are re-integrated)
