- | For a quick overview of the performance of all antennas, we provide curves for all antennas from relevant observations over all available subbands (sorted by observation id). | + | === Results for typical antennas === |
+ | |||
+ | The performance of the entire array can be estimated best by taking the median (or some other percentile) over all antennas. Here are corresponding results from the 2022-11-19 observations (see below). First we take the median over all antennas and plot both polarisations individually: | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:projects:mkat_sband:pub:sefd_allants_pols.pdf|Both polarisations}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | Second we average the polarisations but show the 10/50/90% percentile over all antennas. This means we see the typical range of antennas: | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{:projects:mkat_sband:pub:sefd_allants_perc.pdf|10/50/90% percentiles, polarisations averaged}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | In both files the first five panels show the individual subbands S0/1/2/3/4, the last one combines them all. The yellow vertical lines are the transition frequencies from one subband to the next. In reality the subbands are overlapping, but I always used the inner part where possible. | ||
