Latitude given Coriolis Frequency Formula Elements

Variables
Functions
Earth Station Latitude
Earth Station latitude is the coordinates of earth-station.
Symbol: λe
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Coriolis Frequency
Coriolis Frequency also called the coriolis parameter or coriolis coefficient, is equal to twice the rotation rate Ω of the earth multiplied by the sine of the latitude φ.

Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Angular Speed of the Earth
Angular Speed of the Earth is the measure of how fast the central angle of a rotating body changes with respect to time.
Symbol: ΩE
Measurement: Angular VelocityUnit: rad/s
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
sin
Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse.
Syntax: sin(Angle)
asin
The inverse sine function, is a trigonometric function that takes a ratio of two sides of a right triangle and outputs the angle opposite the side with the given ratio.
Syntax: asin(Number)
