r_rdot_to_ground_plane_bi(look, scp, projection_sets, gref, ugpn, *, delta_gp_gpp=0.01, maxiter=10)

Project along bistatic contours of constant average range and range rate to an arbitrary plane.

Parameters:
look{+1, -1}

+1 if SideOfTrack = L, -1 if SideOfTrack = R

scp(3,) array_like

SCP position in ECEF coordinates (m).

projection_setsProjectionSetsBi

Ensemble of Center of Aperture projection sets to project.

gref(3,) array_like

Ground plane reference point with ECEF (WGS 84 cartesian) X, Y, Z components in meters.

ugpn(3,) array_like

Unit normal vector to ground plane with ECEF (WGS 84 cartesian) X, Y, Z components in meters.

delta_gp_gppfloat, optional

Ground plane displacement threshold for final ground plane point in meters.

maxiterint, optional

Maximum number of iterations to perform.

Returns:
g(…, 3) ndarray

Array of ground plane points with ECEF (WGS 84 cartesian) X, Y, Z components in meters in the last dimension.

delta_gpndarray

Magnitude of the displacement from estimated point to the precise intersection of the target R/Rdot contour.

successbool

Whether or not all displacement magnitudes, delta_gp are less than or equal to the threshold, delta_gp_gpp.
