simulate_rfi_block_prop

simulate_rfi_block_prop(bvis, apparent_emitter_power, apparent_emitter_coordinates, rfi_sources, rfi_frequencies, low_beam_gain=None, apply_primary_beam=True)[source]

Simulate RFI in a BlockVisility

Parameters:
  • bvis – input Visibility, to be updated with RFI

  • apparent_emitter_power – RFI emitter power as received by an isotropic SKA antenna [nrfi_sources x ntimes x nantennas x nchannels]

  • apparent_emitter_coordinates – azimuth, elevation, distance information of RFI emitters [nrfi_sources x ntimes x nantennas x 3]

  • rfi_sources – RFI source names or IDs

  • rfi_frequencies – frequency channels where there is RFI information length = nchannels

  • low_beam_gain – beam gain data / information for Low. If provided, it is either a single value, or a numpy array with dimensions [nrfi_sources x nstations x nchannels]; for Mid, use None

  • apply_primary_beam – Apply the primary beam, not used for Low

Returns:

Visibility
