measures.tofrequency - Function

1.3.1 convert a doppler type value to a frequency
Description

tofrequency will convert a Doppler type value (e.g. in radio mode) to a frequency. The type of frequency (e.g. LSRK) and a rest frequency (either as a frequency quantity (e.g. qa.constants(’HI’)) or a frequency measure (e.g. me.frequency(’rest’,’5100MHz’)) should be specified

Arguments


Inputs
rf	frequency reference type
	allowed:	string
	Default:
v0	doppler measure value
	allowed:	any
	Default:	record
rfq	rest frequency (frequency measure or freuency quantity)
	allowed:	any
	Default:	record

Returns
anyrecord

Example
