Non - contact boundary layer profiler using low - coherence self - referencing
A spatially self–referencing velocimetry system based on low–coherence interferometry has been developed. The measurement technique is contactless and relies on the interference between back–reflected light from an arbitrary reference surface and seeding particles in the flow. The measurement location and the flow velocity are measured relative to the reference surface’s location and velocity, ...
متن کاملA Volume-Imaging Radar Wind Profiler for Atmospheric Boundary Layer Turbulence Studies
This paper describes the turbulent eddy profiler (TEP), a volume-imaging, UHF radar wind profiler designed for clear-air measurements in the atmospheric boundary layer on scales comparable to grid cell sizes of large eddy simulation models. TEP employs a large array of antennas—each feeding an independent receiver—to simultaneously generate multiple beams within a 288 conical volume illuminated...
متن کاملClear air boundary layer spaced antenna wind measurement with the Multiple Antenna Profiler (MAPR)
Spaced antenna (SA) wind measurement techniques are applied to Multiple Antenna Profiler (MAPR) data to evaluate its performance in clear air conditions. MAPR is a multiple antenna 915 MHz wind profiler developed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and described in Cohn et al. (1997), designed to make high resolution wind measurements. Previous reported measurements with MAPR...
متن کاملBenthic boundary tracking using a profiler sonar
The paper presents signal processing and control algorithms that enable autonomous tracking of the boundaries between distinct benthic regions by an AUV equipped of a profiler sonar. A novel sonar classification algorithm is presented, which uses the signature of the ocean floor in the incoming profilers to discriminate between distinct materials. By exploiting sonar scans of the region below t...
متن کاملEstimation of rain parameters from spectral moments of L-band wind profiler using Multi-Layer Perceptron Network model
Two Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) models are developed to estimate the radar reflectivity factor (dBZ) and rain intensity (R) from the spectral moments of an L-band wind profiler. Out of the four spectral moment inputs of the MLP models, the backscattered power (P) and Doppler velocity (VD) were found to have better correlation with the rain parameters. The model results were validated with the ...
