The awkward choice between keeping more extended emission or paying the price of higher map noise: an example of a simulated 100 mJy point source implanted in a single 8-minute blank-field LABOCA scan and reduced three different ways. Shown are a direct map (top left), produced with signal centering only, a map with correlated sky removal (top center), and with additional band-cable decorrelation (top right) taking place before the mapping step. The corresponding effective map rms values are 4.4, 0.012, and 0.011 Jy/beam respectively. Below the maps are the normalized (see Sec. 5.9) residual pixel-to-pixel covariances after the reduction, for the 234 working channels in the array, here with the diagonal 1 values zeroed. The left map preserves source structures on all scales, but these would only be seen if are well in excess of the whopping ∼4 Jy/beam apparent noise level. As the covariance matrix below it demonstrates the data has strong correlated signals across the full array (consistent with atmospheric noise), at levels thousands of times above the detector white noise level. Note, that the larger scales are more severely affected in the map. After removal of the atmospheric noise, the image (top center) no longer contains scales >FoV (∼11’), but pixel ID (1→234) pixel ID (1→234) Relative power of covariance for (self) variance ʢnormalized to self variance = residual white noiseʣ Covariance Matrix Continuum Map Raw data Removing Atmosphere Removing Atm. + instrument 30% 4% x10^4 Kovacs 2008 Dec.

with FMLO 10 20 2017.08.30 Signal Processing of Camera - Estimating and removing correlated noise by Principal Component Analysis - Figure 17. An 850 µm rotating PONG map of M17. Intensity is logarithmically scaled between −0.0003 (white) and +0.01 pW (black). Iteration numbers are given in the corner of each panel. Panels (a) and (b) show the results for a reduction using the baseline parameters (the solution halted after reaching the map-based convergence criterion in 17 iterations). Panel (a) also depicts the array footprint (position angle indicative of the start of the observation), and a 300 arcsec line shows the spatial scale corresponding to the FLT high-pass filter. Similar to Fig. 11(c), the high-pass filtering introduces ringing around bright sources. Panels (c) and (d) show the ‘bright extended’ reduction, in which a zero mask is created iteratively from all of the pixels that lie below a S/N of 5. While this region (outside the red contour) only avoids the brightest peaks early in the solution, in the final iteration, it skirts most of the bright, extended emission, and significantly helps with negative ringing. mode subtraction and high-pass filtering. The first panel also depicts the array footprint, and the angular scale (300 arcsec) corresponding to the high-pass filter edge (0.6 Hz). Much like the reduction of a point source without any prior constraints field clearly contains extended structure. Furthermore, the goal of such maps may be to detect previously unknown cool, dense regions of the interstellar medium that may not have appeared at other wavelengths (e.g. the first optically-thick cloud-collapse stages of • Mapping observation of bright star forming region M17 • brighter emission is modeled as "correlated noise" → negative side lobe • iterative estimate can successfully reproduce brighter emission Chapin et al. 2013 negative side lobe pattern due to bright emission reduced side lobe pattern and proper reproduction of broad emission
