A new polarimetric scheme for attenuation correction at C band
A long-standing problem of attenuation correction at shorter weather radar wavelengths can be efficiently resolved by using measurements of differential phase ΦDP if the radar is polarimetrically upgraded. Original polarimetric method for attenuation correction by Bringi et al. (1990) stipulates that the ratio αh between specific attenuation Ah and specific differential phase KDP does not vary ...
متن کاملAssessment of polarimetric rain rate algorithms at C-band frequencies
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of different polarimetric rainfall estimation algorithms at C-band frequencies. The polarimetric rainfall algorithms are obtained using a wide range of measured drop size distributions with an optical disdrometer in the UK. A dense network of raingauges was used to validate the polarimetric rainfall estimates and the overall results were ...
متن کاملRain Attenuation Prediction at Ku Band Using Satellite Signal Beacon Measurement in Iran
In this paper satellite wave propagation at Ku and Ka band is considered. The design and simulation of a typical satellite beacon receiver at Ka band is designed and simulated for the future works. Also rain attenuation prediction at Ku band using satellite signal beacon measurement and simulations for Iran Telecommunication Research Center (ITRC) are presented. The measurement setup consists o...
متن کاملSimulation of polarimetric radar variables in rain at S-, C- and X-band wavelengths
Polarimetric radar variables of rainfall events, like differential reflectivity ZDR, or specific differential phase KDP, are better suited for estimating rain rate R than just the reflectivity factor for horizontally polarized waves, ZH. A variety of physical and empirical approaches exist to estimate the rain rate from polarimetric radar observables. The relationships vary over a wide range wi...
متن کاملPolarimetric Radar Rainfall Estimation at X-band: Evaluation of Attenuation Correction
The most commonly used polarimetric radar measurements in rainfall estimation are the reflectivity factor, usually at horizontal polarization (Zh), differential reflectivity (Zdr) and specific differential propagation phase (Kdp). Based on the above three measurements, a number of algorithms have been derived in the literature to estimate rainfall (see Bringi and Chandrasekar, 2001 for a summar...
