RISCharacteristics of High-Resolution Wind Profiles Derived from Radar-Tracked Jimspheres and the Rose Processing Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Results are presented from an investigation to estimate the limiting accuracy of atmospheric wind measurements obtained from a radar-tracked jimsphere and the data reduction program. The current system used to support space ...
Median Filter Effects on Radar Wind Profiler Spectral Noise Statistics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: adar wind profiler (RWP) systems observe radar returns from refractive index fluctuations due to clear-air turbulence. The Doppler spectra used to compute the moments of the returned signal always include noise from various ...
Performance Characteristics of the Kennedy Space Center 50-MHz Doppler Radar Wind Profiler Using the Median Filter/First-Guess Data Reduction Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The performance of an improved signal-processing algorithm implemented on the NASA 50-MHz radar wind profiler at Kennedy Space Center is analyzed. In 1990, NASA began using a 50-MHz Doppler radar wind profiler to demonstrate ...
Optimal Generation of Radar Wind Profiler Spectra
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radar wind profilers (RWPs) sense the mean and turbulent motion of the clear air through Doppler shifts induced along several (3?5) upward-looking beams. RWP signals, like all radars signals, are often contaminated. The ...
