Channel
(tag, telescope, band, beam: Unit("arcmin"), center_frequency: Unit("GHz"), bandpass=None)[source] [edit on github]¶ Bases:
object
Base class of a channel
Each channel will be used to produce an output map
- Parameters
- tagstr
channel identifier
- telescopestr
telescope name
- bandstr
identifier of the frequency band, useful for multiple channels with different beams but same frequency response
- beamu.arcmin
full-width-half-max of the beam, assumed gaussian
- center_frequencyu.GHz
center frequency of the channel, it is also necessary when a bandpass is provided
- bandpass(np.array, np.array)
dimensionless frequency response of the channel, the weighting will be performed in power units, MJ/sr
