/AWS1/CL_GSTAZELEPHEMERIS

Azimuth elevation ephemeris data.

Use this ephemeris type to provide pointing angles directly, rather than satellite orbital elements. Use this when you need precise antenna pointing but have imprecise or unknown satellite trajectory information.

The azimuth elevation data specifies the antenna pointing direction at specific times relative to a ground station location. AWS Ground Station uses 4th order Lagrange interpolation to compute pointing angles between the provided data points.

AWS Ground Station automatically filters interpolated pointing angles, including only those that are above the site mask elevation of the specified ground station.

For more detail about providing azimuth elevation ephemerides to AWS Ground Station, see the azimuth elevation ephemeris section of the AWS Ground Station User Guide.

CONSTRUCTOR

IMPORTING

Required arguments:

iv_groundstation TYPE /AWS1/GSTGROUNDSTATIONNAME /AWS1/GSTGROUNDSTATIONNAME

The ground station name for which you're providing azimuth elevation data.

This ephemeris is specific to this ground station and can't be used at other locations.

io_data TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_GSTAZELSEGMENTSDATA /AWS1/CL_GSTAZELSEGMENTSDATA

Azimuth elevation segment data.

You can provide data inline in the request or through an Amazon S3 object reference.
