Usage of plotbandpassStats

Return to directory of Todd's CASA extensions

Calls plotbandpass on a list of caltables with the following naming scheme: caltable+'_smoothXch', with the channeldiff option (to compute derivative statistics) and plots the resulting MADs vs. the level of channel averaging.

Usage:

au.plotbandpassStats(caltable='', chanavg=[], channeldiff=5, title='', usetask=False, resample=True, edge=0)

• chanavg: an integer list -- if not specified, then it will search for the caltables and build it automatically
• channeldiff: passed to plotbandpass
• edge: the edge parameter to pass to plotbandpass
• resample: if True, then call plotbandpass such that it will resample back to the original number of channels in the unsmoothed solution before computing statistics
• title: optional string to add to the title after the ASDM name (derived from the caltable), if the ms cannot be found. Otherwise the bandwidth and number of channels of the first spw is shown.
• usetask: if True, use the casa task plotbandpass rather than analysisUtils version

Example:

CASA : au.plotbandpassStats('uid___A002_X54d35d_X761.ms.split.bandpass')
