Satellite-Orbit-Simulation

Simulates a satellite's Low Earth Orbit trajectory and additionally outputs it's Ground Track for a custom launch position and speed.

%ORBIT ANALYZER %Violet Attitude Control Subsystem %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %Converts the State Vectors - %1. Position Vector [Rx Ry Rz] %2. Velocity Vector [Vx Vy Vz] % into Kepler's Orbital Elements - %1. Length of Semi-major Axis (a) %2. Eccentricity (e) %3. Inclination (inc) %4. Right Ascension of Ascending Node (RAAN) %5. Argument of Perigee (w) %6. Initial Mean Anomaly (M0) % after which it visually displays the orbit of the diagram in 3D space. % The Blue Sphere denotes the Earth % The Green Sphere denotes the initial position of the satellite % The Red Spheres denote the positions of the satellites at fixed time % intervals % The dotted green line denotes the initial velocity vector of the % satellite % The three orthogonal black lines denote the 3 positive ECI axes % % At the end, the altitude ranges are displayed, as well as the orbit type % - LEO or MEO % The simulation only takes into account the the influence of the Earth %CODED BY DEBARGHYA DAS
