sideband_response

property Workspace.sideband_response

Description of (mixer) sideband response.

This variable describes the response of each sideband of a heterodyne receiver. The response is given as a GriddedField1, with frequency as the grid. The actual data describe the sideband filter function at each frequency grid point. An interpolation is applied to obtain the response for other frequencies.

The frequency grid should be given in terms of IF, with end points symmetrically placed around zero. That is, the grid must contain both negative and positive values. The sideband response (after summation with lo) is not allowed to extend outside the range for which spectral data exist (normally determined by f_grid).

Usage: Set by the user.

Dimensions:

  • GriddedField1:
