Enhancement: Process new NFPC metadata field.

texadactyl opened this issue · comments

In the next rawspec release, the capability to generate .h5 files will be added. Included will be the generation of a new file header (metadata) field, nfpc, the number of fine channels per coarse channel.

See UCBerkeleySETI/rawspec#19 for discussion.

The turbo_seti data_handler.py __split_h5() function will be amended to recognise this new field and automatically compute the number of coarse channels based on it and header field nchans, the number of fine channels:

Number of coarse channels = nchans /  nfpc
