Notes. Parameters include survey degradation factor β, telescope gain G, pointing time tpoint, sampling time tsamp, receiver temperature Trec, central frequency νc, bandwidth BW, channel bandwidth BWch, number of polarisations npol, field of view FoV, minimum signal-to-noise ratio S/N, observatory latitude ϕ, observatory longitude λ, mount type; and then the minimum-to-maximum right ascension α, declination δ, Galactic longitude l, and Galactic latitude b. chime-frb survey parameters have been taken from the CHIME system overview paper (CHIME/FRB Collaboration 2018), with bold values indicating an estimated value or an average between given values. All perfect survey parameters are necessarily self-devised.
