Hello,
I’m currently experimenting with the Satellite communication toolbox. I noticed that there seems to be a difference in the output between creating a satellite scenario and populating it using TLE data from a file (so using satellite(sc, tlefile)), versus defining the satellite scenario and adding the satellites’ parameters (which are extracted from the same TLE file using tleread() function) manually, despite having the same initial conditions (startTime, stopTime, and samplingTime)
For instance, with MATLAB’s TLE file ‘leoSatelliteConstellation.tle’, the following output is shown on the SatelliteViewer.

using the manual method based on tleread() and satellite(scenario,semimajoraxis,eccentricity,inclination,RAAN,argofperiapsis,trueanomaly):

and using satellite(scenario,file):

shouldn’t they have the same output?
When using actual TLE data of Iridium satellites, for instance, loading the constellation using the manual method produced an erroneous output!Hello,
