============================ scintdef.txt =================================== This file defines the columns of data in the scint.log files produced by the GRID software receiver. Each scint.log file contains time-stamped scintillation measurements. See channeldef.txt for a definition of ORT. ORT time stamps indicate approximately the time at which the measurement interval ends. Phase-derived measurements are formed by comparison with a reference channel. All channels are referenced to reference channel 1 except for reference channel 1, which is referenced to reference channel 2. ============================================================================= Column Quantity 1 ----------- ORT week number. 2 ----------- ORT whole seconds of week. 3 ----------- ORT fractional second. 4 ----------- Measurement interval length in seconds. 5 ----------- S4 for the whole interval. 6 ----------- S4 for the first half of the interval. 7 ----------- S4 for the second half of the interval. 8 ----------- sigma phi for the whole interval in cycles. 9 ----------- sigma phi for the first half of the interval in cycles. 10 ---------- sigma phi for the second half of the interval in cycles. 11 ---------- tau0 for the whole interval in seconds. A tau0 value of -1 indicates that scintillation was too weak or too slow to enable calculation of tau0 or that computation of tau0 is disabled. 12 ---------- SPR (scintillation power ratio) for the whole interval in dB. 13 ---------- Reference indicator: 0 Normal channel 1 Reference channel 1 2 Reference channel 2 14 ---------- Signal type (see channeldef.txt for list of possible types). 15 ---------- Transmitter identification number (TXID). =============================================================================
