Kozai::SGP4::OpsMode
Inherits Enum < Comparable < Value < Object
Which of the two accepted interpretations of the model to use.
The model as originally fielded by AFSPC and the model as tidied up for publication differ in a few places — chiefly in how Greenwich sidereal time is computed and in a branch of the deep-space long-period corrections. Neither is "more correct": element sets are fitted by an organisation using one of them, so the propagator should use the same one.
Constants
Afspc = 0
Reproduces the behaviour of the operational AFSPC software. This is the default, and it is what the published verification vectors were generated with.
Improved = 1
A revised formulation that behaves more smoothly across some branch
boundaries. Differs from Afspc by well under a kilometre.
