pyrex.custom.arianna.antenna._read_amplifier_data

pyrex.custom.arianna.antenna._read_amplifier_data(gain_filename, phase_filename, gain_offset=0)

Gather frequency-dependent amplifier data from data files.

Each data file should have columns for frequency, gain or phase data, and a third empty column. The gain should be in dB and the phase should be in degrees.

Parameters

gain_filenamestr

Name of the data file containing gains (in dB).

phase_filenamestr

Name of the data file containing phases (in degrees).

gain_offsetfloat, optional

Offset to apply to the gain values (in dB).

Returns

gainsndarray

Complex-valued voltage gains as a function of frequency.

frequenciesndarray

Frequencies (Hz) corresponding to the values of gains.
