SET PHASE
CLIC\SET PHASE [ABSOLUTE|RELATIVE] [ANTENNA|BASELINE]
[INTERNAL|EXTERNAL] [ATMOSPHERE|NOATMOSPHERE] [FILE|NOFILE]
[WVR|NOWVR] [TOTAL|NOTOTAL]
[DEGREES|RADIANS] [JUMPY|CONTINUOUS]
CLIC\SET PHASE ABSOLUTE|RELATIVE
This command decides whether the phase calibration is applied or not
to the data for plotting and writing the final UV table, in subse-
quent PLOT and TABLE commands. ABSOLUTE means do not use the phase
calibration determined by the SOLVE PHASE command, RELATIVE means
apply it.
CLIC\SET PHASE INTERNAL|EXTERNAL
Switch between two modes of phase calibration.
INTERNAL is the standard mode. In EXTERNAL mode the calibration
curve from another receiver may be used (as stored by STORE PHASE
/RECEIVER r); on the top of this a second order calibration curve
may be determined (using SOLVE PHASE) and stored as usual. This does
not erase any INTERNAL calibration curve previously stored.
For example, using receiver 2:
SET PHASE INTERNAL RELATIVE: use the phase curve determined from
Rec. 2 only
SET PHASE EXTERNAL ABSOLUTE: use the phase curve from Rec. 1 only,
as stored with STORE PHASE /RECEIVER 1
SET PHASE EXTERNAL RELATIVE: use the phase curve from Rec 2, deter-
mined on top of the phase curve Rec. 1, by using SOLVE PHASE and
STORE PHASE with SET PHASE EXTERNAL in effect.
SET PHASE INTERNAL is recommended for Receiver 1, SET PHASE EXTER-
NAL for Receiver 2.
CLIC\SET PHASE ANTENNA|BASELINE
Switch between Antenna-based and Baseline-based phase calibrations.
This switch will be active for SOLVE PHASE (calibration curve deter-
mination), STORE PHASE (calibration curve storing operation), and
SET PHASE RELATIVE (application). Both baseline-based and antenna-
based calibration curves may be stored alongside in the data header,
independently of each other. SET PHASE ANTENNA is recommended.
CLIC\SET PHASE ATMOSPHERE|NOATMOSPHERE
Force CLIC to use or not the real-time atmospheric phase correction.
The atmospheric phase correction is based on monitoring the atmo-
sphere water vapor emission using either the total power measured by
the 1.3 mm receivers or the 22 GHz water vapor radiometers. It is
applied in real-time to each dump before computing the scan-averaged
quantities (spectra and continuum); these are further corrected for
the average atmospheric phase, hence leading to phases essentially
not modified, but to improved amplitudes (correction of the decorre-
lation). This phase-corrected scan-averaged dump will be used by
CLIC after SET PHASE ATM has been issued.
The phase correction will NOT be used if it has been declared in-
valid for a given scan, using the command STORE CORRECTION, except
if SET PHASE NOFILE is in effect. See these commands.
Note that the continuum 1 sec dumps are not corrected in real-time,
and are therefore not affected by the SET PHASE ATM command. To
avoid any confusion, SET PHASE ATM forces SET AVER SCAN.
CLIC\SET PHASE FILE|NOFILE
Turn ON of OFF the effect of the STORE CORRECTION command.
If SET PHASE ATMOSPHERE FILE, the information on the validity of the
phase correction declared by STORE CORRECTION will be used, and the
phase correction will thsu be done only on scans validated by STORE
CORRECTION.
If SET PHASE ATMOSPHERE NOFILE, this information will be bypassed,
and the phase correction will be done for all scans.
CLIC\SET PHASE WVR|NOWVR
Switch ON or OFF the off-line atmospheric phase correction based on
the WVR data. All data (individual as well as scan-averaged dumps)
are affected. It is necessary to have run the WVR command before.
SET PHASE WVR forces SET PHASE NOTOTAL.
CLIC\SET PHASE TOTAL|NOTOTAL
Switch ON or OFF the off-line atmospheric phase correction based on
the 1.3 mm total power monitoring. All data (individual as well as
scan-averaged dumps) are affected. It is necessary to have run the
MONITOR command before. SET PHASE TOTAL forces SET PHASE NOWVR.
CLIC\SET PHASE DEGREE|RADIANS
Select the unit in which the phases are plotted.
CLIC\SET PHASE JUMPY|CONTINUOUS n
Selects the way phases are determined. With argument JUMPY no at-
tempt is made to suppress 2pi jumps: the determination is always
[-pi,pi]. With argument "CONTINUOUS n", the phase jumps are limited
to +/- pi, that is the phase is always chosen in the range [previ-
ous-pi,previous+pi], n being the number of points averaged together
to estimate the 'previous' phase (default is 1, higher values are to
be used in noisy cases).
