SphericalTransmitMaps

The SphericalTransmitMap type calculates the transmission between a SphericalWaveExpansion and a SphericalFieldSampling. It implements the spherical Wacker algorithm which is described in more detail in the electromagnetic theory section.

The keyword arguments for the construction of a SphericalTransmitMap are described in the following table

Keyword ArgumentShort Description
firstorder::BoolIf true, spherical coefficients of the incident probe field are treated as FirstOrderSphericalCoefficients. A change from false to true drops all entries which correspond to non-first-order modes. A change from true to false replaces non-first-order modes by zeros.
samplingstrategy::SphereSamplingStrategyReplace the SphereSamplingStrategy. This effectively creates a new instance of SphericalTransmitMap from scratch.
incidentcoefficients::AbstractVectorReplace the spherical coefficients of the incident probe field by the entries of the input vector. If the SphericalTransmitMap is firstorder, all entries of the input vector which correspond to non-first-order modes are ignored.
