Abstract: Results on the transmission loss of a dry and a wet C-band weather radar radome at different rain intensities are presented. Two methods were used in the study, both carried out under laboratory conditions. In the first ...

Abstract: eather radars provide us with colorful images of storms, their development and movement but from time to time the radars fail and we are left without data. To minimize these disruptions, owners of weather radars carry out ...

Abstract: A method for operational monitoring of a weather radar receiving chain, including the antenna gain and the receiver, is presented. The ?online? method is entirely based on the analysis of sun signals in the polar volume ...

Abstract: method for the operational monitoring of the weather radar antenna mechanics and signal processing is presented. The method is based on the analysis of sun signals in the polar volume data produced during the operational ...
