Compare two orbits at the provided instants and compute position and velocity residuals.

Parameters:

  • candidate_orbit (Orbit) -- Candidate Orbit.

  • reference_orbit (Orbit) -- Reference Orbit.

  • instants (list[Instant]) -- List of instants to generate states at.

  • local_orbital_frame_factory_or_frame (LocalOrbitalFrameFactory | Frame, optional) -- The local orbital frame factory to use. Defaults to Frame.GCRF().

Returns:

List of Residuals.

Return type:

list[Residual]
