defining antennas
I am trying to follow your code and have noticed in _test.py the code looks for 3 files:
- "arrays/randarray.dat"
- "arrays/linarray.dat"
- "arrays/circarray.dat"
these files don't exist in the repo. From reading the code I think i've figured out that those files held a multi dimensional array of nx3, where each n was a defined antenna.
I have been able to replace the files by instead creating an array np.array([[1,2,3],[1,2,3],[1,2,3]]); I am just not sure what the 3 values for the antennas are supposed to represent. Would you be able to give me some help with this? Thanks
It's been a few years since I've looked at this, but I'm pretty sure they're the cartesian coordinates of the antennas, in meters. You can see they're divided by the wavelength corresponding to 2477 MHz, so the coordinates used internally are normalized to wavelength.
