COLUMNS FORMAT DESCRIPTION DEFAULT VALUE & UNITS
Introduces a group of option cards with
Yaw polynomial information. This group
may be used for GPS satellites in order
to control the Yaw that GEODYN will
compute. The end of the YAWPOL group is
defined by the global card YPLEND.
1-6 A6 YAWPOL - Following the blank YAWPOL card,
the Yaw polynomial information cards,
have the following format:
1-7 I7 Satellite ID. NOTE [1]
10-22 F13.1 ET start time. SEC. from 2430000.5
24-36 F13.1 ET stop time. SEC. from 2430000.5
39-49 F11.6 a0 of the quadratic polynomial degrees
52-62 F11.6 a1 of the quadratic polynomial degrees
65-76 F11.6 a2 of the quadratic polynomial degrees
79 A1 It is important that column 79 be filled
with the letters S, P or N. These are
just comments but it helps GEODYN IIS
realize that the card is a YAW polynomial
card. NOTE [2]
80 A1 1 - first half of maneuver
2 - second half of maneuver
N - noon

Note [1]: All polynomials should be grouped by satellite ID and time order.
Note [2]: Input to colums 79-80 are interpreted as follows:
S1 = first half of shadow maneuver
S2 = second half of shadow maneuver
P1 = first post shadow maneuver (not always present)
P2 = second post shadow maneuver (usually present)
NN = Noon maneuver (only present for very low beta angles)
