In order to evaluate pulse compression for use in phased array weather radar systems, modifications to the Time-Series Weather Radar Simulator have been made which incorporate phase-coding into its functionality. This allows for evaluating the performance of various pulse compression schemes under controlled conditions. Barker-coded pulses with matched and mismatched filters were examined in re...

In order to evaluate pulse compression for use in phased array weather radar systems, modifications to the TimeSeries Weather Radar Simulator have been made which incorporate phase-coding into its functionality. This allows for evaluating the performance of various pulse compression schemes under controlled conditions. In this study, a 5-bit Barker code has been integrated into the TSWRS along ...

This paper describes the application of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) as Data Driven Models (DDMs) to predict urban flooding in real-time based on weather radar and/or raingauge rainfall data. A 123manhole combined sewer sub-network from Keighley, West Yorkshire, UK is used to demonstrate the methodology. An ANN is configured for prediction of flooding at manholes based on rainfall input. I...

In a recent study, 2-D pseudospectral time-domain (PSTD) full-wave simulator was developed and demonstrated to be capable of efficiently solving large-scale low-frequency (e.g., HF) electromagnetic scattering problems, for example, on the application radar sounding simulations planetary clutter subsurfaces. this article, PSTD is applied simulate domain as large 4000 <inline-formula xmlns:mml="h...

In the last years, the interest of the remote sensing scientific community for a new Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) operating mode, referred to as hybrid stripmap/spotlight mode, has widely increased. In the hybrid acquisition mode the radar antenna beam is steered about a point farther away from the radar than the area being illuminated, thus generating microwave images with an azimuth resolut...

A complete interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) simulator has been developed. It achieves precise results by using geodetic models to represent the Earth’s shape, and considering SAR effects such as range migration, Doppler shifts, or perturbations of movement in the airborne case, which are included via the inverse Extended Chirp Scaling Algorithm (ECSA).
