System Requirements for Phased Array Weather Radar
Preamble This is the final report to Lockheed Martin on the requirements for a phased array weather radar. Discussed herein are those meteorological requirements that need to be met by weather radars having either reflector type antennas or active phased array elements. These requirements impact the design of the antenna, the transmitter-receiver, and signal processor. Justifications for these ...
متن کامل12b.3 Software and Signal Processing Upgrades for the National Weather Radar Testbed Phased-array Radar
The U.S. Government operates seven distinct radar networks providing weather and aircraft surveillance for public weather services, air traffic control, and homeland defense. A next-generation, multifunction phased array radar (MPAR) concept has been proposed that could provide enhanced weather and aircraft surveillance services with potentially lower life-cycle costs than multiple single-funct...
متن کاملRefractivity Measurements from Ground Clutter Using the National Weather Radar Testbed Phased Array Radar
In warm seasons, convective precipitation initiation heavily depends on moisture near the surface [e.g., Dabberdt and Schlatter, 1996; Koch et al., 1997]. A necessary condition for an accurate prediction of convective rainfall is a good forecast of where and when convection will develop. Both prediction and understanding of convection is limited by the lack of high spatial and temporal resoluti...

متن کاملAdaptive Range Oversampling to Achieve Faster Scanning on the National Weather Radar Testbed Phased-Array Radar
This paper describes a real-time implementation of adaptive range oversampling processing on the National Weather Radar Testbed phased-array radar. It is demonstrated that, compared to conventional matched-filter processing, range oversampling can be used to reduce scan update times by a factor of 2 while producing meteorological data with similar quality. Adaptive range oversampling uses momen...
