CovarianceUtilities.GetRandomStates(Matrix, Variable, RandomNumberGenerator) Method

Top

Description

Returns random states from a zero-mean Gaussian distribution described by the provided covariance matrix. The resulting random states are returned in a column matrix.

Timing Precision Mode

This page describes functionality in millisecond timing precision mode. Millisecond timing precision mode is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. We recommend that you migrate your Mission Plans to nanosecond timing precision mode.
