Tool dynamicsched


Specify band-dependent parameters which influence the sensitivity


Synopsis
setbandsensitivity(whichband, bandname, freqlow, freqhigh, bandwidth, tsys, efficiency)


Description
Specify band-dependent parameters which influence the sensitivity, such as antenna efficiency, bandwidth, and system temperature. Opacity and decorrelation are handled automatically through the site testing data.



Arguments

whichband Give the band number (1 relative)
Allowed: Int
Default: 1
bandname Band name (just used as a label
Allowed: String
Default: 'band1'
freqlow Low frequency band limit
Allowed: Quantity
Default: '100GHz'
freqhigh High frequency band limit
Allowed: Quantity
Default: '1000GHz'
bandwidth Bandwith for the observations
Allowed: Quantity
Default: '8GHz'
tsys System temperature (below the atmosphere)
Allowed: Quantity
Default: '100K'
efficiency Cumulative efficiency (antenna and correlator)
Allowed: Float
Default: 0.80


Returns
Bool


Example
mysched.setbandsensitivity(1, 'band1', '1GHz', '100GHz', '8GHz', '30K', 
0.80);
mysched.setbandsensitivity(2, 'band2', '100GHz', '300GHz', '8GHz',  '50K', 
0.75);
mysched.setbandsensitivity(3, 'band3', '300GHz', '500GHz',  '8GHz', '100K',  
0.70);
