dscfg (dictionary of dictionaries) –

data set configuration. Accepted configuration keywords:

datatype : list of string. Dataset keyword
    The input data types, must contain
    "IQhhADU", "IQvvADU", "IQNADUh" and "IQNADUv"
subtract_noise : Bool
    If True noise will be subtracted from the signal
lag : int
    The time lag to use in the estimators
direction : str
    The convention used in the Doppler mean field. Can be
    negative_away or negative_towards
variables : list of str
    list of variables to compute. Default dBZ
phase_offset : float. Dataset keyword
    The system differential phase offset to remove

radar_list (list of spectra objects) – Optional. list of spectra objects

Returns:

new_dataset (dict) – dictionary containing the output fields corresponding to the specified “variables” “”
ind_rad (int) – radar index
