Abstract
In this paper, a method to calculate the inclination function with Jacobi polynomials is studied, the formulation of this method is very simple, it needs not to concern about whether k and l have the same parity, and to calcu- late the non-integral factorials, nor to concern about the conversion between the case of k < 0 and the case of k ⥠0, and the recurrent formula can be the stan- dard recurrent formula for Jacobi polynomials. In addition, its computational accuracy and applicable order-numbers are equivalent to those of the Gooding method, but its calculating time is shorter than that of the Gooding method for 9%.
