Based on a known true track obtained using simTrueTrack, this function will give true positions at time-of-pings, which are also in the output. TOPs are determined by user-specified transmitter type. Number of pings are determined automatically based on track length and transmitter specifications.

Arguments

trueTrack

Know track obtained using simTrueTrack

pingType

Type of transmitter to simulate - either stable burst interval ('sbi'), random burst interval ('rbi') or random burst interval but where the random sequence is known a priori

sbi_mean, sbi_sd

Mean and SD of burst interval when pingType = 'sbi'

rbi_min

Minimum and maximum BI for random burst interval transmitters

rbi_max

Minimum and maximum BI for random burst interval transmitters

Value

Data frame containing time of ping and true positions
