Module: navAggregate

Executive Summary

This module takes in a series of navigation messages and constructs a navigation output message using a select subset of information from the input messages. For more information see the PDF Description.

Message Connection Descriptions

The following table lists all the module input and output messages. The module msg connection is set by the user from python. The msg type contains a link to the message structure definition, while the description provides information on what this message is used for.

Functions

void SelfInit_aggregateNav(NavAggregateData *configData, int64_t moduleID)

This method initializes the configData for the nav aggregation algorithm. It initializes the output messages in the messaging system.

Parameters:

• configData – The configuration data associated with the Nav aggregation interface

• moduleID – The Basilisk module identifier

Returns:

void

void Update_aggregateNav(NavAggregateData *configData, uint64_t callTime, int64_t moduleID)

This method takes the navigation message snippets created by the various navigation components in the FSW and aggregates them into a single complete navigation message.

Parameters:

• configData – The configuration data associated with the aggregate nav module

• callTime – The clock time at which the function was called (nanoseconds)

• moduleID – The Basilisk module identifier

Returns:

void

void Reset_aggregateNav(NavAggregateData *configData, uint64_t callTime, int64_t moduleID)

This resets the module to original states.

Parameters:

• configData – The configuration data associated with this module

• callTime – The clock time at which the function was called (nanoseconds)

• moduleID – The ID associated with the configData

Returns:
