THIS REPO IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION: DOCUMENTATIONS AND IMPLEMENTATION OF SGP4 MODEL COMING SOON

Satellite-Groundtrack

Ground track and 3D orbit simulation of LEO satellite.


Use:

  1. Run setup.m.
  2. Open initSimulationParams.m.
    1. Input initial Keplerian elements.
    2. Input simulation time in days and step time in seconds.
  3. Run mainKeplerGroundTrack.m or mainNewtonGroundTrack.m.

Note: mainKeplerGroundTrack.m uses Kepler's and mainNewtonGroundTrack.m uses Newton's equation.
