Path: Orbit/OrbitManeuver
% Solve the Linear Terminal Velocity Constraint problem.
dr/dt = c1 + c2*vH where vH is the horizontal velocity and c1
and c2 are constants
Since version 2.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
v0 = LTVCon( r0, r, c1, c2, orbitType, mu )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
r0 (3,1) Initial position vector
r (3,1) Final position vector
c1 (1,1) Constant
c2 (1,1) Constant
orbitType (1,:) 'direct' or 'retrograde'
mu (1,1) Gravitational parameter (default is the earth)
-------
Outputs
-------
v0 (1,1) Initial velocity
