TRGCTR I Center of motion of target. TRGREF I Frame of target position. ET I Observation epoch. OUTREF I Reference frame of output state. REFLOC I Output reference frame evaluation locus. ABCORR I Aberration correction. OBSRVR I Name of observing ephemeris object. STATE O State of target with respect to observer. LT O One way light time between target and observer. Detailed_InputTRGPOS is the fixed (constant) geometric position of a target relative to its "center of motion" TRGCTR, expressed in the reference frame TRGREF. Units are always km. TRGCTR is the name of the center of motion of TRGPOS. The ephemeris of TRGCTR is provided by loaded SPK files. Optionally, you may supply the integer ID code for the object as an integer string. For example both 'MOON' and '301' are legitimate strings that indicate the moon is the center of motion. Case and leading and trailing blanks are not significant in the string TRGCTR. TRGREF is the name of the reference frame relative to which the input position TRGPOS is expressed. The target has constant position relative to its center of motion in this reference frame. Case and leading and trailing blanks are not significant in the string TRGREF. ET is the ephemeris time at which the state of the target relative to the observer is to be computed. ET is expressed as seconds past J2000 TDB. ET refers to time at the observer's location. OUTREF is the name of the reference frame with respect to which the output state is expressed. When OUTREF is time-dependent (non-inertial), its orientation relative to the J2000 frame is evaluated in the manner commanded by the input argument REFLOC (see description below). Case and leading and trailing blanks are not significant in the string OUTREF. REFLOC is a string indicating the output reference frame evaluation locus: this is the location associated with the epoch at which this routine is to evaluate the orientation, relative to the J2000 frame, of the output frame OUTREF. The values and meanings of REFLOC are: 'OBSERVER' Evaluate OUTREF at the observer's epoch ET. Normally the locus 'OBSERVER' should be selected when OUTREF is centered at the observer. 'TARGET' Evaluate OUTREF at the target epoch; letting LT be the one-way light time between the target and observer, the target epoch is ET-LT if reception aberration corrections are used ET+LT if transmission aberration corrections are used ET if no aberration corrections are used Normally the locus 'TARGET' should be selected when OUTREF is TRGREF, the frame in which the target position is specified. 'CENTER' Evaluate the frame OUTREF at the epoch associated its center. This epoch, which we'll call ETCTR, is determined as follows: Let LTCTR be the one-way light time between the observer and the center of OUTREF. Then ETCTR is ET-LTCTR if reception aberration corrections are used ET+LTCTR if transmission aberration corrections are used ET if no aberration corrections are used The locus 'CENTER' should be selected when the user intends to obtain results compatible with those produced by SPKEZR. When OUTREF is inertial, all choices of REFLOC yield the same results. Case and leading and trailing blanks are not significant in the string REFLOC. ABCORR indicates the aberration corrections to be applied to the observer-target state to account for one-way light time and stellar aberration. ABCORR may be any of the following: 'NONE' Apply no correction. Return the geometric state of the target relative to the observer. The following values of ABCORR apply to the "reception" case in which photons depart from the target's location at the light-time corrected epoch ET-LT and *arrive* at the observer's location at ET: 'LT' Correct for one-way light time (also called "planetary aberration") using a Newtonian formulation. This correction yields the state of the target at the moment it emitted photons arriving at the observer at ET. The light time correction uses an iterative solution of the light time equation. The solution invoked by the 'LT' option uses one iteration. 'LT+S' Correct for one-way light time and stellar aberration using a Newtonian formulation. This option modifies the state obtained with the 'LT' option to account for the observer's velocity relative to the solar system barycenter. The result is the apparent state of the target---the position and velocity of the target as seen by the observer. 'CN' Converged Newtonian light time correction. In solving the light time equation, the 'CN' correction iterates until the solution converges. 'CN+S' Converged Newtonian light time and stellar aberration corrections. The following values of ABCORR apply to the "transmission" case in which photons *depart* from the observer's location at ET and arrive at the target's location at the light-time corrected epoch ET+LT: 'XLT' "Transmission" case: correct for one-way light time using a Newtonian formulation. This correction yields the state of the target at the moment it receives photons emitted from the observer's location at ET. 'XLT+S' "Transmission" case: correct for one-way light time and stellar aberration using a Newtonian formulation This option modifies the state obtained with the 'XLT' option to account for the observer's velocity relative to the solar system barycenter. The position component of the computed target state indicates the direction that photons emitted from the observer's location must be "aimed" to hit the target. 'XCN' "Transmission" case: converged Newtonian light time correction. 'XCN+S' "Transmission" case: converged Newtonian light time and stellar aberration corrections. Neither special nor general relativistic effects are accounted for in the aberration corrections applied by this routine. Case and leading and trailing blanks are not significant in the string ABCORR. OBSRVR is the name of an observing body. Optionally, you may supply the ID code of the object as an integer string. For example, both 'EARTH' and '399' are legitimate strings to supply to indicate the observer is Earth. Case and leading and trailing blanks are not significant in the string OBSRVR. Detailed_OutputSTATE is a Cartesian state vector representing the position and velocity of the target relative to the specified observer. STATE is corrected for the specified aberrations and is expressed with respect to the reference frame specified by OUTREF. The first three components of STATE represent the x-, y- and z-components of the target's position; the last three components form the corresponding velocity vector. The position component of STATE points from the observer's location at ET to the aberration-corrected location of the target. Note that the sense of the position vector is independent of the direction of radiation travel implied by the aberration correction. The velocity component of STATE is the derivative with respect to time of the position component of STATE. Units are always km and km/sec. When STATE is expressed in a time-dependent (non-inertial) output frame, the orientation of that frame relative to the J2000 frame is evaluated in the manner indicated by the input argument REFLOC (see description above). LT is the one-way light time between the observer and target in seconds. If the target state is corrected for aberrations, then LT is the one-way light time between the observer and the light time corrected target location. ParametersNone. Exceptions1) If either the name of the center of motion or the observer cannot be translated to its NAIF ID code, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. 2) If the reference frame OUTREF is unrecognized, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. 3) If the reference frame TRGREF is unrecognized, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. 4) If the frame evaluation locus REFLOC is not recognized, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. 5) If the loaded kernels provide insufficient data to compute the requested state vector, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. 6) If an error occurs while reading an SPK or other kernel file, the error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. 7) If the aberration correction ABCORR is not recognized, an error is signaled by a routine in the call tree of this routine. FilesAppropriate kernels must be loaded by the calling program before this routine is called. The following data are required: - SPK data: ephemeris data for target center and observer must be loaded. If aberration corrections are used, the states of target center and observer relative to the solar system barycenter must be calculable from the available ephemeris data. Typically ephemeris data are made available by loading one or more SPK files using FURNSH. The following data may be required: - PCK data: if the target frame is a PCK frame, rotation data for the target frame must be loaded. These may be provided in a text or binary PCK file. - Frame data: if a frame definition not built into SPICE is required, for example to convert the observer-target state to the output frame, that definition must be available in the kernel pool. Typically frame definitions are supplied by loading a frame kernel using FURNSH. - Additional kernels: if any frame used in this routine's state computation is a CK frame, then at least one CK and corresponding SCLK kernel is required. If dynamic frames are used, additional SPK, PCK, CK, or SCLK kernels may be required. In all cases, kernel data are normally loaded once per program run, NOT every time this routine is called. ParticularsThis routine computes observer-target states for targets whose trajectories are not provided by SPK files. Targets supported by this routine must have constant position with respect to a specified center of motion, expressed in a caller-specified reference frame. The state of the center of motion relative to the observer must be computable using loaded SPK data. For applications in which the target has non-zero, constant velocity relative to its center of motion, the SPICELIB routine SPKCVT { SPK, constant velocity target } can be used. This routine is suitable for computing states of landmarks on the surface of an extended object, as seen by a specified observer, in cases where no SPK data are available for those landmarks. This routine's treatment of the output reference frame differs from that of the principal SPK API routines SPKEZR SPKEZ SPKPOS SPKEZP which require both observer and target ephemerides to be provided by loaded SPK files: The SPK API routines listed above evaluate the orientation of the output reference frame (with respect to the J2000 frame) at an epoch corrected for one-way light time between the observer and the center of the output frame. When the center of the output frame is not the target (for example, when the target is on the surface of Mars and the output frame is centered at Mars' center), the epoch of evaluation may not closely match the light-time corrected epoch associated with the target itself. This routine allows the caller to dictate how the orientation of the output reference frame is to be evaluated. The caller passes to this routine an input string called the output frame's evaluation "locus." This string specifies the location associated with the output frame's evaluation epoch. The three possible values of the locus are 'TARGET' 'OBSERVER' 'CENTER' The choice of locus has an effect when aberration corrections are used and the output frame is non-inertial. When the locus is 'TARGET' and light time corrections are used, the orientation of the output frame is evaluated at the epoch obtained by correcting the observation epoch ET for one-way light time LT. The evaluation epoch will be either ET-LT or ET+LT for reception or transmission corrections respectively. For remote sensing applications where the target is a surface point on an extended object, and the orientation of that object should be evaluated at the emission time, the locus 'TARGET' should be used. When the output frame's orientation should be evaluated at the observation epoch ET, which is the case when the output frame is centered at the observer, the locus 'OBSERVER' should be used. The locus option 'CENTER' is provided for compatibility with existing SPK state computation APIs such as SPKEZR. Note that the output frame evaluation locus does not affect the computation of light time between the target and observer. The SPK routines that compute observer-target states for combinations of objects having ephemerides provided by the SPK system and objects having constant position or constant velocity are SPKCPO {SPK, Constant position observer} SPKCPT {SPK, Constant position target} SPKCVO {SPK, Constant velocity observer} SPKCVT {SPK, Constant velocity target} ExamplesThe numerical results shown for this example may differ across platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine specific arithmetic implementation. 1) Demonstrate use of this routine; in particular demonstrate applications of the output frame evaluation locus. The following program is not necessarily realistic: for brevity, it combines several unrelated computations. Task Description ================ Find the state of a given surface point on earth, corrected for light time and stellar aberration, relative to the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft, expressed in the earth fixed reference frame ITRF93. The selected point is the position of the DSN station DSS-14. Contrast the states computed by setting the output frame evaluation locus to 'TARGET' and to 'CENTER'. Show that the latter choice produces results very close to those that can be obtained using SPKEZR. Also compute the state of a selected Mars surface point as seen from MGS. The point we'll use is the narrow angle MOC boresight surface intercept corresponding to the chosen observation time. Express the state in a spacecraft-centered reference frame. Use the output frame evaluation locus 'OBSERVER' for this computation. The observation epoch is 2003 OCT 13 06:00:00 UTC.
