LAT: Indicates two fixed antennae are laterally installed. The antennae are mounted in a
‘left-to-right’ alignment perpendicular to the center line of the vehicle. On an
aircraft, this is known as the ‘axis of pitch’.
LON: Indicates two fixed antennae are longitudinally installed. The antennae are
mounted in a ‘front-to-rear’ alignment along the center line of the vehicle. On an
aircraft, this is known as the ‘axis of roll’.
USER: Assume longitudinally installation with additional user_angle rotation. The
user_angle must be between 0-360 degrees relative to the center line of the
platform
User Angle 0-360 degrees relative to the center line of the platform; referenced from the rover
Default: LON
