LinkOrbitAnalysis:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Link analysis.
   The orbit is the spaceraft position in km. Each orbit position must
   have a corresponding Julian day number.
   Modulations are 'BPSK' 'QPSK' 'DE-BPSK' 'DE-QPSK' 'D-BPSK'
   The output is the bit error probability as a function of the orbit
   position.
