Simplified sensor setup for an AMSU-type instrument.

This method allows quick and simple definition of AMSU-type sensors. Assumptions:

  1. Pencil beam antenna.

  2. Double sideband receivers.

  3. Sideband mode “upper”

  4. The channel response is rectangular.

Under these assumptions the only inputs needed are the LO positions, the offsets from the LO, and the IF bandwidths. They are provieded in sensor_description_amsu.
