Issue 9204: CalibratorType (xtce-rtf)
Source:  (, )
Nature: Enhancement
Severity: Critical
Summary: SCOS 2K uses another type of calibrators that is not supported by XTCE. XTCE should provide a way to support a kind of logarithmic (or custom) calibrator. The calibration is defined by the following equation: Y = 1/{A0 + A1 ln(x) + A2 ln2(x) + A3 ln3(x) + A4 ln4(x)}. Ln is the natural log (base e), and Ai are coefficients stored for the calibrations. Of course such a 
calibrator will need, as others, a short description and a name. If this thought as not generic 
enough, then XTCE should give a way to describe non standard calibrators. For example, coefficient, base, exponent in a term sum used as a calibrator.
