GPS Solar Radiation Pressure Model.

Overview#

scale

Multiplicative factor on top of nominal GPS solar pressure model for acceleration in the satellite body fixed X-Z plane, which contains the sun to satellite line. Also known as K1, the nominal value is near 1.0.

y_bias

Acceleration along the body-fixed Y axis of the satellite. Input is unitless but is multiplied by 1.0e-12 m/s2 to yield an acceleration perpendicular to the sun-to-satellite line. Also known as K2, the nominally value is in the range of -1 < YBias < 1.
