Abstract: The correlation signals of the incoherent, quasi-coherent, and coherent backscatterings from clouds have been analytically calculated from a unified formalism based on the Eulerian description for a generic weather radar ...

Abstract: The Doppler operation applied to the sea surface is studied for the spaceborne and airborne weather radars. In the space mission, a small amount of beam misalignment can cause large contamination of a platform velocity ...

Abstract: Pulse-pair Doppler operation is considered for the spaceborne mission. In a formalism, the condition that a measured Doppler velocity on pulse-pair operation corresponds to that on the FFT operation is derived. The coherent ...

Abstract: Digitized signals for a spaceborne weather radar are generated to inspect a Doppler signal processor, in which the digital signals are converted to analog through an arbitrary wave generator. A conventional Rice harmonic ...

Abstract: In this paper a sea surface radar echo spectral analysis technique to correct for the rainfall velocity error caused by radar-pointing uncertainty is presented. The correction procedure is quite straightforward when the ...

Abstract: In this paper, two different numerical methods capable of computing multiple scattering effects in pulsed-radar systems are compared. Both methods are based on the solution of the time-dependent vectorial form of the ...
