restart

Restart simulation from beginning

Since R2022a

Syntax

restart(sc)

Description

restart(sc) resets the satellite scenario sc to the initial start time.

Examples

Manual Simulation of Satellite Scenario

Create a satellite scenario object and set the AutoSimulate property to false to enable manual simulation of the satellite scenario.

sc = satelliteScenario('AutoSimulate',false);

Add a GPS satellite constellation to the scenario.

sat = satellite(sc,"gpsAlmanac.txt");

Simulate the scenario using the advance function.

while advance(sc)
end

Obtain the satellite position histories.

p = states(sat);

AutoSimulate is false, so restart the scenario before adding a ground station.

restart(sc);

Add a ground station to the scenario.

gs = groundStation(sc);

Add access analysis between each satellite and ground station.

ac = access(sat,gs);

Simulate the scenario and determine the access intervals.

while advance(sc)
end
intvls1 = accessIntervals(ac)

Input Arguments

sc — Satellite scenario

satelliteScenario object

Satellite scenario, specified as a satelliteScenario object. The argument applies only if the AutoSimulate property of the sc object is false.

The timeline and playback widgets on the open satellite scenario viewers that were previously made available after calling the play function become unavailable for interaction.
