pygwb.preprocessing.set_start_time

pygwb.preprocessing.set_start_time(job_start_GPS: int, job_end_GPS: int, buffer_secs: int, segment_duration: int, do_sidereal: bool = False)

Function to identify segment start times either with or without sidereal option.

Parameters:

• job_start_GPS (int) – Integer indicating the start time (in GPS) of the data.

• job_end_GPS (int) – Integer indicating the end time (in GPS) of the data.

• buffer_secs (int) – Number of cropped seconds.

• segment_duration (int) – Duration of each segment.

• do_sidereal (bool, optional) – When this option is turned on, the code considers sidereal days instead of terrestrial days.

Returns:

centered_start_time: int

Integer with the initial time of the segment to be pre-processed.
