Transmission function

Dictionary: transmission_params · Class: TransmissionParams

Used by: cutoff, cone, planet, flight, transmission, skymap

Computes the transmission function (probability that a given rigidity is geomagnetically allowed) by sampling a small band of rigidities around each scanned point rather than a single trace.

Key Type Default Description
transmission bool False Enable transmission function computation.
transmissionRstep float 0.001 Half-width (GV) of the sampling band around each tested rigidity: samples are drawn from R ± transmissionRstep.
transmissionsamples int 20 Number of rigidities sampled within that band.
