Coverage of China New Generation Weather Radar Network

The Danish weather radar network

The Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) operates four cband radars for weather monitoring. Three of these radars are doppler and were purchased from Electronic Enterprise Corporation (EEC) in the last 2 – 4 years. The fourth radar is an older non-doppler radar manufactured by Ericsson of Sweden and is situated on the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea. Geographical location of the radar sit...

A new approach to wind turbine power generation forecasting, using weather radar data based on Hidden Markov Model

The wind is one of the most important and affecting phenomena and is known as one of the significant clean resources of energy. Apart from other atmospheric parameters, the wind has complex behavior and intermittent characteristics. Local phenomena can be accompanied by the wind, which is strong, non-predicted, and damaging.  Weather radars are capable of detecting and displaying storm-related ...

8.2 New Weather-surveillance Capabilities for Nssl’s Phased-array Radar

The U.S. Government operates seven distinct radar networks providing weather and aircraft surveillance for public weather services, air traffic control, and homeland defense. A next-generation, multifunction phased array radar (MPAR) concept has been proposed that could provide enhanced weather and aircraft surveillance services with potentially lower life-cycle costs than multiple single-funct...
