CartesianOnePointPropagatorPropagate Method (JulianDate, JulianDate, Duration, Int32, ReferenceFrame) |
Calculates position (and zero or more derivatives) for regular time steps over an interval.
Note: when propagating, it may be more efficient to specify times using
an arithmetically safe TimeStandard to avoid the need
to convert in order to perform the propagation. The length of a time step may be different in
different TimeStandards. So be careful when specifying times.

Parameters
- startDate
- Type: AGI.Foundation.TimeJulianDate
The first date for which to calculate position and velocity. - stopDate
- Type: AGI.Foundation.TimeJulianDate
The last date for which to calculate position and velocity. - timeStep
- Type: AGI.Foundation.TimeDuration
The Duration between each ephemeris point. - order
- Type: SystemInt32
The order of the highest derivative to compute. To compute just position, pass 0. To compute position and velocity (if available), pass 1. And so on. - outputReferenceFrame
- Type: AGI.Foundation.GeometryReferenceFrame
The reference frame in which the generated ephemeris data is to be expressed.
Return Value
Type:
DateMotionCollectionCartesian
A list of date and motion for each step in the interval. The
stopDate is always
the last point in the list even when this makes the step between the second-to-last and last points less than the specified step.
