121 Summary: 

122 Get a list of spectral window IDs with ALMA-specific attributes. 

123 

124 Description: 

125 

126 

127 Get spectral window IDs based on ALMA-specific criteria. The inputs are or'ed together 

128 to form the returned list. If complement=True, then the complement of the selection 

129 is returned. 

130 

131 If the SPECTRAL_WINDOW table has the optional BBC_NO column and if the name 

132 of the spectral window matches the regular expression 'BB_[0-9]#SQLD', where 

133 [0-9] indicates that a single integer matches, the window is classified as 

134 a *square law detector spectral window*. 

135 

136 The following algorithm is used to identify WVR spwectral windows: 

137 

138 1. check for water vapor radiometer (WVR) spectral windows using the spectral window 

139 name 'WVR#NOMINAL' and report these. 

140 2. If no SPWs match that string, then the names are checked for 'WVR' and are reported instead. 

141 

142 If the window is not found to be a WVR window, it is then checked if 

143 

144 The window is classified as a *channel average spectral window* if it is not 

145 a WVR window, if the number of channels is one, and the spectral window name 

146 does not contain the string 'FULL_RES' 

147 

148 The window is classified as an *FDM window* if it is neither a WVR window nor 

149 a channel average window and if either 

150 

151 1. its bandwidth is less than 2 GHz, or 

152 2. the number of channels it contains is greater than or equal to 15 but not 

153 equal to 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 248, 124, 62, or 31. 

154 

155 The window is classified as a *TDM spectral window* if it is neither a WVR window, 

156 a channel average window, nor an FDM window. 

157 

158 

159 

160 Input Parameters: 

161 chavg Get channel average spectral windows? 

162 fdm Get FDM spectral windows?

905 for that row, UFBW is the unflagged fractional bandwidth is determined by summing all the widths of the 

906 unflagged channels for that correlation and dividing by the total bandwidth of all spectral windows observed 

907 at the timestamp of row i, ncorrelations is the number of correlations determined by the number of rows in
