Routine Descriptions

REE_SET_GSM

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]
 PRO: REE_SET_GSM, sc

 PURPOSE: LOADS STATE AD SETS UP PLOTS FOR GSM

 INPUT: 
       SC    -       REQUIRED. STRING. Spacecraft

 EXAMPLE: ree_set_gsm, 'a' 

 OUTPUT: GSM Coordinates are laoded into tplot. 

 WARNING: BE SURE TO SET TIMESPAN FIRST!

 INITIAL VERSION: REE 08-10-31
 MODIFICATION HISTORY: 
 LASP, CU

THM_EFI_CLEAN_EFP

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
 PRO: THM_EFI_CLEAN_EFP

 PURPOSE:
    FIXES AXIAL, REMOVES SPIKES, SPINTONE, SC POTENTIAL, AND OTHER EFP ERRORS.

   This routine is designed for general use. It will take EFP data in DSL as
   input, clean up the data, and transform the data into FAC and GSM, and
   return the cleaned EFP data in DSL, FAC, and GSM. If the data is gathered in
   the dayside, set keyword /SUBSOLAR to use keyword defaults specifically for
   dayside data.
   
   The routine can work on one-day long data, but if only a single particle
   burst data is interesting, use the keyword TRANGE to specify the time range
   of that burst can greatly reduce run time.

   CAUTION: The input keyword ENAME is optional. When it is not specified,
       ENAME is defaulted to 'thx_efp', where 'x' is probe name and should be
       one of these: 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', and 'e'. In this case, if the existed
       'thx_efp' is not in DSL, the output will be wrong. So, make sure the
       existed 'thx_efp' is in DSL, or specify ENAME to another tplot variable
       which is EFP data in DSL.

   NOTE: 1) Spike removal does not always work, so don't be surprised if there
         still are spikes left on the data. Hopefully the spike issue can be
         resolved in the future.
         2) Merge can exhibit pathological behavior if B is near the spin plane.
         spike removal does not always work.
         3) Make sure thx_state_spinper is available! Best to set up for gsm.
         Make sure timespan is set!!!!

THM_EFI_FIX_FREQ_AND_PHASE

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
 FUNCTION: THM_EFI_FIX_FREQ_AND_PAHSE, E, freq=freq, ghf=ghf, dt=dt, axial=axial

 PURPOSE: A routine which integrates data to fix the gain and remove the
          phase shift due to resistive to capacitive crossover of the  
          THEMIS preamps. ONLY USEFUL FOR BURST DATA.

 INPUT: 
       data -        REQUIRED. Data to be fixed. DEFAULT = SPIN PLANE

 KEYWORDS: 
       axial -       OPTIONAL. Changes freq and gh to AXIAL default values.
       freq -        OPTIONAL. Crossover frequency in HZ. DEFAULT = SPIN PLANE
                     Careful! Derived from Rsheath(Csheath+Cin)
       ghf -         OPTIONAL. Gain at high frequency. DEFAULT = SPIN PLANE
                     Csheath/(Csheath+Cin)
       dt -          OPTIONAL. Time between samples (s). DEFAULT = 1/8192

 CALLING: Esp = thm_efi_fix_freq_and_phase(Esp) or 
          Eax = thm_efi_fix_freq_and_phase(Ex, /ax)

 OUTPUT: Data is integrated to remove gain/phase error from preamp RC 
         crossover.

 NOTE ON DEFAULTS: Spin Plane: The front-end network, R=100k, C = 10pF is  
    ignored. Instead, I fudge Csh = 14 pF  and Cin = 11.5 pF to realize a close 
    approximation of measured gain/phase (see Bonnell et al. paper).
    Axial: Same system. I use Csh = 4 pf, Cin = 13 pF to approximate. 
    One could improve the calculation with 2 poles, but the location of Cin
    (before or after the input network) would need to be questioned.
    Rsh is assumed to be 20 MOhm
        
 BEHAVIOR: 
    (1) USE /AX for AXIAL SIGNALS!!!
    (2) DATA AT BEGINNING OF AN ARRAY MAY NOT BE CORRECTED. 
    Use large arrays if possible. The program relaxes by one
    e-fold every 3 ms. 
    (3) Electric field is improved for all plasma conditions. However, 
    PHASE/GAIN CORRECTION MAY NOT BE ENOUGH FOR ALL PLASMA CONDITIONS.
    (4) PROBES MUST BE IN SUNLIGHT!
    (5) ONLY USEFUL FOR BURST DATA!
    (6) BE SURE TO SET DT = 1/16384 FOR AC BURST!!!

 NAME: 
     THM_LSP_FILTER_HIGHPASS (FUNCTION)
                        
 PURPOSE:
     CAUTION: THIS ROUTINE ONLY WORKS FOR DATA SAMPLED AT EITHER 8192 HZ OR
              16384 HZ.
     In general, this routine works as a high-pass filter on the input data.
     The data to be filtered must be a continuously sampled 1D array. The basic
     process of this routine is the following. First, the input data will be
     low-pass filtered with two Finite Impulse Response filters and 2:1
     decimations. The details of this procedure is described in the paper
        Cully, Space Sci Rev, 2008, V141, 343-355.
     Second, the output from the first step is extracted from the input data to
     generate the final output. This whole process is equivalent to a high-pass
     filter. 
     If the routine exit unsuccessfully, -1 will be retured.

 CALLING SEQUENCE:
     output = thm_lsp_filter_highpass(datain, dt, [keywords])

 ARGUMENTS:
     datain: (INPUT, REQUIRED) The data to be filtered. It must be a 1D array.
     dt: (INPUT, REQUIRED) The sample interval of DATAIN in seconds; 
           1/dt = sample_rate.

 KEYWORDS:
     freqlow: (OUTPUT, OPTIONAL) The approximate lower bound of the frequency
              range of the output of the routine.

HISTORY:
    2009-05-03: Created by Jianbao Tao, CU/LASP.
    2009-05-17: Fixed the edge effect due to sectioning original data.
                Jianbao Tao, CU/LASP
    2010-01-22: Fixed the issue of dealing with a too-short input array.

[Previous Routine] [List of Routines]
 NAME:

       FFT_CONVOLUTION

 PURPOSE:

		Computes the convolution of two or many 1D to 3D arrays by using the FFT.

 DESCRIPTION:

		This function computes in one time the convolution of an array with
		one or more convolution kernels, e.g. F*K1*K2*...Kn.
		1 dimensional to 3 dimensional arrays are supported.

 CATEGORY:

       Mathematics.

 CALLING SEQUENCE:

		Result = FFT_CONVOLUTION(array, kernel, /DOUBLE)

 INPUTS:

		Array: 1-D to 3-D array to be convolved.

		Kernel: 1-D to 3-D array to be used as convolution kernel.
				Kernel Must have the SAME SIZE as Array.
				For multiple convolutions Kernel must have the dimension of Array + 1 and
				must have one convolution kernel for each element of the Last dimension:
				e.g.: for F(x,y)*K1(x,y)*K2(x,y) where F is of LX*LY size the kernel is
				an array of [LX, LY, 2] in size.
				The Kernel is always centered on the Array points to make convolution.

 KEYWORD PARAMETERS:

		DOUBLE: if set uses the double precision for the FFT.
