Adjust Attitude Estimator Sun Vector Error Representation
Closed this issue · 3 comments

Currently, we define our expected sun vector distribution as a spherical coordinate representation plus or minus a predetermined uncertainty in phi
and theta
. While the sun vector is around the equator this is alright as a given step in phi
or theta
traverse a similar distance on the unit sphere. If the expected sun vector, however, is near a pole (plus or minus z), this representation is no longer consistent.
We need to define a local error distribution around the expected sun vector for this to work more consistently.
