# Airshower + Beacon simulation
Simulate receiving an airshower and beacon in an array.
Using the beacon, the clocks can be calibrated.
The ZHaires simulated airshower is stored in [./ZH_airshower](./ZH_airshower).
The produced files can be read using [./earsim](./earsim).
Steps:
1. Setup
1. Beacon ([./generate_beacon.py])
1. Define tx position
2. Read in antennas
3. Sample beacon at each antenna
4. Add to relevant polarisation
5. Save antenna traces
2. Timeoffset ([./generate_timeoffset.pyt])
1. Generate timeoffsets for each antenna
2. Modify time samples
