Attenuation Correction for Ka-band Cloud Radar Using X-band Weather Radar Data

In order to correct attenuated millimeter-wavelength (Ka-band) radar data and address the problem of instability, an attenuation correction methodology (attenuation correction with variation trend constraint; VTC) was developed. Using synchronous observation conditions and multi-band radars, the VTC method adopts the variation trends of reflectivity in X-band radar data captured with wavelet tr...

Quantitative analysis of X-band weather radar attenuation correction accuracy

At short wavelengths, especially C-, X-, and Kband, weather radar signals are attenuated by the precipitation along their paths. This constitutes a major source of error for radar rainfall estimation, in particular for intense precipitation. A recently developed stochastic simulator of range profiles of raindrop size distributions (DSD) provides a controlled experiment framework to investigate ...

Influence of non-uniform radar beam filling on attenuation correction at C- and X-band

At short wavelengths, the attenuation of the radar signal due to precipitation along its path constitutes a major source of error for radar rainfall estimation. The different techniques developed to correct for this attenuation generally assume that the radar sampling volumes are homogeneously filled by rainfall. However, rainfall is highly variable over a large range of scales, and the influen...

Computer Analysis of X-Band Radar Data

Dual polarized X-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data were obtained for a test site in South Carolina containing a variety of forest and agricultural cover types, as well as water and urban areas. The optically correlated images were digitized with a scanning microdensitometer using a 40 ~m aperture. Digi tal registration of the two polarizations was more difficult than anticipated due to g...

Rain Attenuation Correction of Reflectivity for X-Band Dual-Polarization Radar

In order to improve the performance of X-band dual-polarization radars, it is necessary to conduct attenuation correction before using the X-band radar data. This study analyzes a variety of attenuation correction methods for the X-band radar reflectivity, and proposes a high-resolution slide self-consistency correction (SSCC) method, which is an improvement of Kim et al.’s method based on Brin...
