28 Sep 2008 Navigation Coordinate Frame Conversions Converts between navigational coordinate frames Author: Luke Chiou, Jason

The way it converts velocity from ECI to ECEF is wrong. You don't use the same rotation matrix, used for converting position, to convert the velocity.
Here is what's in and what's out.

>> eci.x = 1;
eci.y = 1;
eci.z = 1;
eci.xdot =10;
eci.ydot = 10;
eci.zdot = 10;

dt =540;

ecef = ECI2ECEF( eci, dt)

ecef =

x: 1.0386
y: 0.9599
z: 1
xdot: 10.3867
ydot: 9.5993
zdot: 10

Obviously, the velocity out is wrong.
Take a look at the following page:

The code is given in a DLL, which from my point of view is a big minus. It would be much more useful (at least from an understanding what's going on point of view) to have it as a script. Perhaps the library call is faster, but it does not help me. Also, some comments on the code would be useful.
