 ELDEC Products
 --------------
 This section describe the structure of ELDEC products.
 ELDEC Products: dimensions
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 The following dimensions are defined in ELDEC products:
 -  time
 -  altitude
 -  ratio
 -  calibration
 -  nv
 The dimension *time* (mandatory) specifies the number of calibration performed at different times.
 The dimension *altitude* (mandatory) represents the number of rangebins characterizing
 the reflected to transmitted polarization calibration ratio.
 The dimension *ratio* (mandatory) indicates the number reflected to transmitted ratios included in the product.
 The dimension *calibration* indicates the number of calibrations provided by the product.
 The dimension *nv* (mandatory) is ancillary and it is always set to 2.
