Propagator11Parameters

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.Propagator11Parameters

Bases: IPropagator

The 11-Parameter propagator models geostationary satellites using 11-Parameter files. The propagator uses an algorithm documented in Intelsat Earth Station Standards (IESS) IESS-412 (Rev. 2), available at www.celestrak.com.

Overview

Methods

propagate

Propagates the satellite’s path using the specified time interval.

Properties

step	Step size. Uses Time Dimension.
ephemeris_interval	Get the propagator’s ephemeris interval.
parameter_files	Return a collection of 11-Parameter satellite definitions.
