cor

DESCRIPTION

"cor" is an XF-type software correlator dedicated to 1-bit AD data and carries out cross correlation processing using an apriori file. Correlated data are output to a file with a "cout" format. Auto-correlation or cross correlation with zero apriori value are also available.

SYNOPSIS

[Type 1]

cor afile [options]

afile a-priori file name created by "apri_calc"
OPTIONS

--help show how to execute
-integ integration_time set integration period (sec). Default is a scheduled scan period.
-coffset clock_offset set clock offset (sec) applied for fringe search purpose. Positive value menas Y clock tic earlier than X clock tic. Default is 0.0

-comment "any_comment"
set comment appeared in a correlation function plot when pmode=0,1,2

-ch3 ch3Y define Y channel for X CH# 3 (default 3).
-ch4 ch4Y define Y channel for X CH# 4 (default 4).
-orule naming_rule set naming rule of output file name
0 : use program default (cout.txt)
1 : coutNNNNtxt (deflt) where NNNN is 4 digit serial number
2 : coutEXP_CODE/coutYYDDDNNNNXYG.txt
      where   EXP_CODE -- experiment code

                  YY   -- 2 digit year

                  DDD  -- 3 digit day of year

                  NNNN -- 4 digit scan number

                  XY   -- baseline id (2 char or 4 char)

                  G    -- Frequency group (a|b|c|d)
3 : coutYYDDDNNNNXYG.txt
      where   YY   -- 2 digit year

              DDD  -- 3 digit day of year

              NNNN -- 4 digit scan number

              XY   -- baseline id (2 char or 4 char)

              G    -- Frequency group (a|b|c|d)
(default is COUT_NAMING_RULE in cor_head.h)
-odir outdir set output file directory. Default is COUTDFLT in cor_head.h
-rfoffset rf_offset set RF frequency difference between Y and X (RFy-RFx)(Hz)
-cout cout_file set output file name compulsory. If this parameter is set, naming rule and out directory are ignored.
-frstep frstep set fringe phase calculation step in samples
0: automatic calc
1: every 1 sample
8: every 8 sample
N: every N sample. (Note: N can be any number, but 1000/N must be integer)
default is FRSTEP_FX_COR (in cor_head.h)
-frauto set frstep=0 (automatic calculation mode)
-fall pcalf set PCAL frequency of all channels compulsory (kHz)
-f1 pcalf1 set CH1 PCAL frequency compulsory(kHz)
-f2 pcalf2 set CH2 PCAL frequency compulsory(kHz)(kHz)
-f3 pcalf3 set CH3 PCAL frequency compulsory(kHz)(kHz)
-f4 pcalf4 set CH4 PCAL frequency compulsory(kHz)(kHz)
Note: in case of "cor new" and "fx_cor new", options upto "-f16 pcalf16" are possible

[Auto Correlation Mode]

cor k5file1 [k5file2] [options]

k5file1 data file name (K5/VSSP format)
k5file2 2nd data file name for Y station. If directory is omitted in k5file2, directory is considered to be the same as k5file1. If 2nd data file name is omitted, k5file1 is used for both X and Y data file Note: Apriori values are all set to zero. Frequencies are all set to zero.

[Monitoring Environmental Variables]

cor env

check environmental variables used in "cor"

K5APRIDIR -- default directory for apriori file
K5COUT -- default directory for correlation data out
