RVFromKepler:

Path: SC/BasicOrbit

% Generate an orbit by propagating Keplerian elements.
   If t is not entered it will plot one orbit. Only handles elliptical orbits.

   Form:
   [r, v, t] = RVFromKepler( elI, t, mu, tol )

   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   elI        (1,6) Elements vector [a,i,W,w,e,M] or structure
   t          (1,:) Times from 0 to ƒ (sec)
   mu         (1,1) Gravitational parameter
   tol        (1,1) Orbit propagation tolerance

   -------
   Outputs
   -------
   r          (3,:) Position vectors for times t
   v          (3,:) Velocity vectors for times t
   t          (1,:) Times at which r and v are calculated
