OrbitStateEquinoctial#

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.OrbitStateEquinoctial#

Bases: IOrbitState

Equinoctial coordinate type, which uses the center of the Earth as the origin and the plane of the satellite’s orbit as the reference plane.

Overview#

coordinate_system

Get the coordinate system and coordinate epoch.

coordinate_system_type

Get or set the coordinate system being used.

formulation

Get or set the Formulation can be Retrograde or Posigrade.

h

H/K collectively describe the shape of the satellite’s orbit and the position of perigee. Dimensionless.

k

H/K collectively describe the shape of the satellite’s orbit and the position of perigee. Dimensionless.

mean_longitude

Specify a satellite’s position within its orbit at epoch and equals the sum of the classical RAAN, Argument of Perigee, and Mean Anomaly. Uses Angle dimension.

p

P/Q collectively describe the orientation of the satellite’s orbit plane. Dimensionless.

q

P/Q collectively describe the orientation of the satellite’s orbit plane. Dimensionless.

size_shape

Get the value of Mean Motion or Semimajor Axis.

size_shape_type

Get or set the orbit size option can be Mean Motion or Semimajor Axis.

state_epoch

Smart epoch component allows the user to configure the state epoch explicitly or implicitly (using a pre-defined or custom time instant component).

supported_coordinate_system_types

Return an array of supported coordinate system types.
