Workspace Variable met_mm_backend

Backend description for meteorological millimeter sensors with passbands.

This is a compact description of a passband-type sensor, e.g. AMSU-A. The matrix
contains one row for each instrument channel. Each row contains four elements:

 - LO position [Hz]
 - first offset from the LO [Hz]
 - second offset from the LO+offset1 [Hz]
 - channel width [Hz]

Overview::

                            LO
                             |
                 offset1     |    offset1
             ----------------+----------------
             |                               |
             |                               |
    offset2  |  offset2             offset2  |  offset2
    ---------+---------             ---------+---------
    |                 |             |                 |
    |                 |             |                 |

  width             width         width             width

For a sensor with 1 passband, offset1 and offset2 are zero.
For a sensor with 2 passbands, only offset2 is zero.

Usage: Set by the user.

Unit: All entries in Hz.

Size: [number of channels, 4]

Group: Matrix
