[DownRange ht] = Slant2DownEL(L,hp,el,[EarthRadius])
Converts a slant range at a given elevation angle to a downrange along the curved-earth surface and a target altitude
Parameters |
Description |
L [scalar] |
Target slant range (m) |
hp [scalar] |
Platform altitude above surface of the earth (m) |
el [scalar] |
Elevation angle from platform to target measured from horizontal (rad). Up is positive and down is negative. |
EarthRadius [scalar] |
(Optional) Earth radius to use (m) - assumes spherical Earth and defaults to WGS84 mean Earth radius. |
Return Values |
Description |
DownRange [scalar] |
