------ UVCal ------ UVCal objects hold all of the metadata and data required to work with calibration solutions for interferometric data sets. Calibration solutions are tied to antennas rather than baselines. There are many different kinds of calibration solutions, UVCal has support for many of the most common ones, but this flexibility leads to some complexity in the definition of UVCal objects. The ``cal_type`` attribute on UVCal objects indicates whether calibration solutions are "gain" (a complex number per antenna, polarization and frequency) or "delay" (a real number per antenna and polarization) type solutions. The ``cal_style`` attribute indicates whether the solution came from a "sky" or "redundant" style of calibration solution. Some metadata items only apply to one ``cal_type`` or ``cal_style``. The antennas are described in two ways: with antenna numbers and antenna names. The antenna numbers should **not** be confused with indices -- they are not required to start at zero or to be contiguous, although it is not uncommon for some telescopes to number them like indices. On UVCal objects, the names and numbers are held in the ``antenna_names`` and ``antenna_numbers`` attributes respectively. These are arranged in the same order so that an antenna number can be used to identify an antenna name and vice versa. Note that not all the antennas listed in ``antenna_numbers`` and ``antenna_names`` are guaranteed to have calibration solutions associated with them in the ``gain_array`` (or ``delay_array`` for delay type solutions). The antenna numbers associated with each calibration solution is held in the ``ant_array`` attribute (which has the same length as the ``gain_array`` or ``delay_array`` along the antenna axis). For most users, the convenience methods for quick data access (see `UVCal: Quick data access`_) are the easiest way to get data for particular antennas. Those methods take the antenna numbers (i.e. numbers listed in ``antenna_numbers``) as inputs. UVCal: parameter shape changes ------------------------------- As detailed in :ref:`uvdata_future_shapes`, UVData objects now support flexible spectral windows and will have several of their parameter shapes change in version 3.0. They also have a method to convert to the planned future array shapes now to support an orderly conversion of code and packages that use UVData objects to the future shapes. UVCal objects now also support flexible spectral windows and will see parameter shape changes in version 3.0. Spectral windows are implemented on standard "gain" type UVCal objects in a similar way to the UVData implementation, where windows are defined as sets of frequency channels with some extra parameters to track which channels are in each spectral window. This allows for spectral windows to have arbitrary numbers of frequency channels and makes the ``channel_width`` parameter be an array of length ``Nfreqs`` rather than a scalar, but only when the UVCal object contains flexible spectral windows. Supporting multiple spectral windows in this way removes the need for the spectral window axis on several UVCal parameters, but the axis was left as a length 1 axis for backwards compatibility. Spectral windows are treated a little differently for wide-band style UVCal objects, which do not have an explicit frequency axis. For those objects, which include all "delay" type UVCal objects as well as wide-band gain objects, the ``freq_array`` and ``channel_width`` parameters are not required but the ``freq_range`` parameter is required. UVCal objects that are wide-band and use the future array shapes can support multiple spectral windows, see details below. In version 3.0, several parameters will change shape. For standard "gain" type UVCal objects, the length 1 axis that was originally intended for the spectral windows axis will be removed from the ``gain_array`` , ``flag_array``, ``quality_array``, ``input_flag_array``, ``total_quality_array`` and ``freq_array`` parameters and the ``channel_width`` parameter will always be an array of length ``Nfreqs``. For wide-band and "delay" type UVCal objects, the spectral window axis will be retained but the axis corresponding to the frequency axis will be removed from the ``gain_array`` , ``delay_array``, ``flag_array``, ``quality_array``, ``input_flag_array`` and the ``total_quality_array`` and the ``freq_range`` parameter will gain a spectral window axis. In addition, the ``integration_time`` parameter will always be an array of length ``Ntimes``. In order to support an orderly conversion of code and packages that use the ``UVCal`` object to these new parameter shapes, we have created the :meth:`pyuvdata.UVCal.use_future_array_shapes` method which will change the parameters listed above to have their future shapes. Users writing new code that uses ``UVCal`` objects are encouraged to call that method immediately after creating a UVCal object or reading in data from a file to ensure that the code will be compatible with the forthcoming changes. Developers and maintainers of existing code that uses ``UVCal`` objects are encouraged to similarly add that method call and convert their code to use the new shapes at their earliest convenience to ensure future compatibility. The method will be deprecated but not removed in version 3.0 (it will just become a no-op) so that code that calls it will continue to function.

This is useful for codes that are calculating calibration solutions from UVData objects. There are many optional parameters to allow users to specify additional metadata or changes from the uvdata metadata. By default, this method creats a metadata only UVCal object, but it can optionally create the data-like arrays as well, filled with zeros. .. code-block:: python >>> import os >>> from pyuvdata import UVData, UVCal >>> from pyuvdata.data import DATA_PATH >>> uvd_file = os.path.join(DATA_PATH, "zen.2458098.45361.HH.uvh5_downselected") >>> uvd = UVData.from_file(uvd_file, file_type="uvh5", use_future_array_shapes=True) >>> uvc = UVCal.initialize_from_uvdata(uvd, "multiply", "redundant") >>> print(uvc.ant_array) [ 0 1 11 12 13 23 24 25] UVCal: Instantiating from arrays in memory ------------------------------------------ ``pyuvdata`` can also be used to create a UVCal object from arrays in memory. This is useful for mocking up data for testing or for creating a UVCal object from simulated data. Instead of instantiating a blank object and setting each required parameter, you can use the ``.new()`` static method, which deals with the task of creating a consistent object from a minimal set of inputs .. code-block:: python >>> from pyuvdata import UVCal >>> from astropy.coordinates import EarthLocation >>> import numpy as np >>> uvc = UVCal.new( ... gain_convention = "multiply", ... x_orientation = "east", ... cal_style = "redundant", ... freq_array = np.linspace(1e8, 2e8, 100), ... jones_array = ["ee", "nn"], ... antenna_positions = { ... 0: [0.0, 0.0, 0.0], ... 1: [0.0, 0.0, 1.0], ... 2: [0.0, 0.0, 2.0], ... }, ... telescope_location = EarthLocation.from_geodetic(0, 0, 0), ... telescope_name = "test", ... time_array = np.linspace(2459855, 2459856, 20), ... ) Notice that you need only provide the required parameters, and the rest will be filled in with sensible defaults.

UVCal: Quick data access ------------------------ Method for quick data access, similar to those on :class:`pyuvdata.UVData` (:ref:`quick_access`), are available for :class:`pyuvdata.UVCal`. There are three specific methods that will return numpy arrays: :meth:`pyuvdata.UVCal.get_gains`, :meth:`pyuvdata.UVCal.get_flags`, and :meth:`pyuvdata.UVCal.get_quality`.
