Using dtscalibration in your own package

Bas des Tombe edited this page Mar 16, 2020 · 4 revisions

To make integration of dtscalibration into other people's packages easier, we maintain this page to list things such as hard-coded variable names.


The following variable names are dynamic:

  • name of the time dimension (which is derived from the st variable dimensions)
  • names of the reference sensors/sections

A few variable/dimension names are reserved:

  • x for the length along fiber.

  • st, ast for the Stokes and anti-Stokes intensities

  • rst, rast for the reverse measurement in a double-ended setup

  • tmpf, tmpb, tmpw for the calibrated forward, backward and weighted temperatures

  • gamma, gamma_var

  • dalpha, dalpha_var

  • alpha, alpha_var

  • df, df_var

  • db, db_var

  • trans_att

  • talpha_fw, talpha_bw, talpha_fw_var, talpha_bw_var
