pyrad.proc.process_estimate_phidp0(procstatus, dscfg, radar_list=None)[source]#

estimates the system differential phase offset at each ray

Parameters:
  • procstatus (int) – Processing status: 0 initializing, 1 processing volume, 2 post-processing

  • dscfg (dictionary of dictionaries) –

    data set configuration. Accepted Configuration Keywords:

    datatype : list of string. Dataset keyword
        The input data types, must contain
        "dBZ" or "dBZc", and,
        "PhiDP" or "PhiDPc" or "uPhiDP"
    rmin : float. Dataset keyword
        The minimum range where to look for valid data [m]
    rmax : float. Dataset keyword
        The maximum range where to look for valid data [m]
    rcell : float. Dataset keyword
        The length of a continuous cell to consider it valid precip [m]
    Zmin : float. Dataset keyword
        The minimum reflectivity [dBZ]
    Zmax : float. Dataset keyword
        The maximum reflectivity [dBZ]
    
  • radar_list (list of Radar objects) – Optional. list of radar objects

Returns:

  • new_dataset (dict) – dictionary containing the output fields “PhiDP0” (system diff. phase) and “PhiDP0_bin” (first gate diff. phase)

  • ind_rad (int) – radar index
