Description

PWI>Plasma Wave Instrument Reference: Gurnett, D.A., et al., The Polar Plasma Wave Instrument, Space Science Reviews, Vol. 71, pp. 597-622, 1995. donald-gurnett@uiowa.edu An FFT on 2048 values was used in calibrating the data; i.e., perform FFT, calibrate in frequency domain, perform inverse FFT to get calibrated time series. Coordinate system used: local magnetic field-aligned, a spacecraft centered coordinate system where Z is parallel to the local B-field determined from Polar MFE, X points outward and lies in the plane defined by the Z-axis and the radial vector from the earth to the spacecraft, and Y completes a right-handed system and points eastward. The X- and Z-axes are contained in the north-south plane. Effective bandwidth is 1.5*delta_f, where delta_f depends on the size of the FFT used to convert to the frequency domain, and delta_t. These data come in snapshots of 2048 points per channel, every 128.8 seconds, where the duration of each snapshot is 0.057 seconds. The time for individual samples is their individual epoch time (in CDF TT2000). The unattenuated frequency range for this file type is 20Hz to 16000Hz. The cadence value given here is computed from the inverse of the sampling rate (35712 Hz).
