Detailed Description

Model non-linear correlator function for the VisEquation.

Intended use:

Public interface

Prerequisite

MeasurementComponents module
VisSet class
VisEquation class

Etymology

XCorr describes an interface for a non-linear function to be used in the VisEquation. It is an Abstract Base Class: most methods must be defined in derived classes.

Synopsis

See VisEquation for definition of the Visibility Measurement Equation.

The following examples illustrate how an XCorr can be used:

Simulation: van Vleck correction

Example

// Read the VisSet from disk
VisSet vs("3c84.MS");
VisEquation ve(vs);
// Make an XCorr
CorrelatorXCorr coxc(vs);
ve.SetXCorr(coxc);
// Correct the visset
ve.correct();

Motivation

The properties of a multiplicative component must be described for the VisEquation.

To Do

There are no derived classes!
