March 2021

First full re-processing of RPW L0/L1/L2 data (survey data only, no SBM data).

Data product
Data modifications
Change logSoftware nameSoftware latest version
SOLO_L2_RPW-TNR-SURV
  • NEW calibration procedure -- factor 2 in the voltage V0 (input voltage for the calibration)
  • Corrections on max/min in gattrs writing; remove gattrs1 from antennas_params
  • Variable FREQUENCY added
THR_CALBAR2.3.3
SOLO_L2_RPW-HFR-SURV
  • NEW calibration procedure -- added 2 dB to V0 due to the 75 ohm cable as observed in the BW test on ground
THR_CALBAR2.3.3
SOLO_L2_RPW-LFR-SURV-ASM
  • Reads the validity file from each team to obtain the calibration filename to use.
LFR_CALBUT1.5.5
SOLO_L2_RPW-LFR-SURV-BP1
  • Calibration improved.
  • Now BP1 are divided by ASM frequencies.
  • Days with only burst mode are now correctly computed.
  • Reads the validity file from each team to obtain the calibration filename to use.
LFR_CALBUT1.5.5
SOLO_L2_RPW-LFR-SURV-BP2
  • Calibration improved at F2 frequencies. Now BP1 are divided by ASM frequencies.
  • Days with only burst mode are now correctly computed.
  • Reads the validity file from each team to obtain the calibration filename to use.
LFR_CALBUT1.5.5
SOLO_L1R_RPW-LFR-SURV-CWF-B, SOLO_L1R_RPW-LFR-SURV-SWF-B
  • Update Global Attributes.
LFR_CALBUT1.5.5
SOLO_L1R_RPW-LFR-SURV-CWF-E, SOLO_L1R_RPW-LFR-SURV-SWF-E
  • No update
LFR_CALBUT1.5.5
SOLO_L2_RPW-LFR-SURV-CWF-E, SOLO_L2_RPW-LFR-SURV-SWF-E
  • Zero order AC data de-trending (remove mean; previously removed linear fit), but no AC data re-trending. This removes earlier artificial offsets and artificial linear components, in particular in snapshots.
  • Using improved fits and extrapolations of the BIAS AC transfer functions, in particular for low frequencies.
  • Using modified inverted transfer functions for AC data below 7 Hz (constant gain) to prevent low frequency noise from being amplified.
  • Sets quality variables based on manually identified thruster firings.
  • Better CDF standards compliance.
BICAS5.0.0
SOLO_L2_RPW-TDS-SURV-STAT, SOLO_L2_RPW-TDS-SURV-MAMP, SOLO_L2_RPW-TDS-SURV-HIST1D, SOLO_L2_RPW-TDS-SURV-HIST2D, SOLO_L2_RPW-TDS-SURV-RSWF-E, SOLO_L2_RPW-TDS-SURV-TSWF-E
  • 1.0.- Bug in CHANNEL_OVERFLOW flag for waveform snapshots fixed. Antenna lengths for RPW_ANTENNA_RTN data in snapshot waveforms added. Now both directions in RTN and effective lengths are provided.
  • 1.0.1 - Feature to process the resized L1 files for the redundant LFM modes implemented.
  • 1.0.0 - New calibration table released. A major problem in calibrations of MAMP, STAT, HISTxD fixed (mismatch in a calibration table). CHANNEL_CONFIG replaced by CHANNEL_REF in all concerning data products. TDS antenna configuration is now represented by number (e.g. 10 = ANT1-GND or 23 = ANT2-ANT3). Feature to process the resized L1 files implemented.
  • 0.9.9 - Signs for waveform and voltage snapshots fixed. Some issues with the ISTP/SPDF compliance resolved, metadata variables added dimensions for existing zVars changed.
  • 0.9.8 - Mandatory Global Attributes filled. Mismatch in modes for the waveform snapshot calibration fixed. Time vector in MAMP product adequately created.
  • 0.9.6 - the first SOAR release (known bugs: bad sign for VOLTAGES in all waveform snapshots. Bad calibrations for MAMP and STAT for some of the TDS modes. Incorrect time vector for MAMP. BAD flag for CHANNEL_OVERFLOW in MAMP, TSWF and RSWF data products).
TDS_CALBA1.0.2
