ReceptorFrame

class ska_sdp_datamodels.science_data_model.ReceptorFrame(name)

Polarisation frames for receptors

This includes circular, linear, and stokesI. The latter is non-physical but useful for some types of testing.

Attributes:: rec_frames: Dictionary containing all the supported polarisations

Attributes Summary

`names`	Names
`nrec`	Number of receptors (should be 2)
`rec_frames`

Methods Summary

`from_dict`(data_dict)	Returns the polarisationsfor the receptor
`to_dict`()	Returns the appropriate ReceptorFrame type as a dictionary
`valid`(name)	Is name a valid rec_frame key?
