Hi Vijay -- okay, this is helpful. Do the *.msdpppconcat frequencies match pre-facet-target?

from lofar-vlbi.

Hmm, seems not entirely. The number of files matches (22), but there is inconsistency of central frequency between 130 MHz and 138 MHz as above

Pre-Facet-Target:

There is also an inconsistent central frequency between 4 *msdpppconcat and *.pre-cal_ddf.h5 files (between 130 MHz and 138 MHz), see below.

Theses msdpppconcat you are talking about come from the concatenate in Delay-Calibration right? This inconsistency might be due to a difference in reference SB that was used for the concatenate there and in prefactor. Are they the same between your prefactor and lofar-vlbi runs? Delay-Calibration.parset uses a hardcoded value:

## for proper concatenation
! reference_stationSB = 104

While prefactor's default is set to None:

## concatenating the target data
! num_SBs_per_group         =  10                                                                 ## make concatenated measurement-sets with that many subbands, choose a high number if running LBA
! reference_stationSB       =  None                                                               ## station-subband number to use as reference for grouping, "None" -> use lowest frequency input data as reference

You could to try setting reference_stationSB = None in your Delay-Calbration parset or rerunning prefactor/LINC with the same reference SB. The former is probably easiest, as the latter would also require rerunning ddf-pipeline.

Okay, I will re-run Delay-Calibration (since it's quicker) -- we'll see what happens by Monday. Though, if this inconsistency between parsets was the cause then I'm surprised this hasn't happened before

vmahat avatar vmahat commented on September 17, 2024

The Delay-Calibration has now finished without errors -- thanks Frits. I'll close the ticket, but perhaps we ought to change this in the Delay-Calibration parset.

lmorabit avatar lmorabit commented on September 17, 2024

Reopening this issue because the behaviour between pre-facet-target and delay-calibration should be the same. We had to set this because there were issues of inconsistent concatenation if it wasn't set, so this needs further investigation on how to ensure it's always the same.
