Convert a function expressed in Slepian coefficients to spherical harmonic coefficients.
Usage
call SlepianCoeffsToSH(film, falpha, galpha, lmax, nmax, exitstatus)
Parameters
film: output, real(dp), dimension (2,lmax+1,lmax+1)- The spherical harmonic coefficients of the global function.
falpha: input, real(dp), dimension (nmax)- A vector containing the Slepian coefficients of the function.
galpha: input, real(dp), dimension ((lmax+1)**2,nmax)- An array containing the spherical harmonic coefficients of the Slepian functions. Each column corresponds to a single function of which the spherical harmonic coefficients can be unpacked with
SHVectorToCilm. lmax: input, integer(int32)- The spherical harmonic bandwidth of the Slepian functions.
nmax: input, integer(int32)- The number of expansion coefficients to compute. This must be less than or equal to (
lmax+1)**2. exitstatus: output, optional, integer(int32)- If present, instead of executing a STOP when an error is encountered, the variable exitstatus will be returned describing the error. 0 = No errors; 1 = Improper dimensions of input array; 2 = Improper bounds for input variable; 3 = Error allocating memory; 4 = File IO error.
Description
SlepianCoeffsToSH will compute the spherical harmonic coefficients of a global function film given the Slepian functions galpha and the corresponding Slepian coefficients falpha. The Slepian functions are determined by a call to either (1) SHReturnTapers and then SHRotateTapers, or (2) SHReturnTapersMap. Each row of galpha contains the (lmax+1)**2 spherical harmonic coefficients of a Slepian function that can be unpacked using SHVectorToCilm. The Slepian functions must be normalized to have unit power (that is the sum of the coefficients squared is 1), and the spherical harmonic coefficients are calculated as
f_ilm = sum_{alpha}^{nmax} f_alpha g(alpha)_lm
