Array

class pyvisgen.simulation.Array(array_layout)

Bases: object

Class that handles antenna array operations such as calculating antenna pairs for baselines.

Parameters:

array_layoutStations

Stations dataclass object containing station data.

Attributes Summary

calc_ant_pair_vals	Calculates station number, low elevation, and high elevation pairs.
calc_relative_pos	Calculates the relative positions of the antennas from geocentric coordinates.
get_pairs	Computes antenna pair combinations and calculates the relative positions of the antennas.
