Effects of Radar Beam Shielding on Rainfall Estimation for the Polarimetric C-Band Radar
Radar reflectivity (Zh), differential reflectivity (Zdr), and specific differential phase (Kdp) measured from the operational, polarimetric weather radar located in Trappes, France, were used to examine the effects of radar beam shielding on rainfall estimation. The objective of this study is to investigate the degree of immunity of Kdp-based rainfall estimates to beam shielding for C-band rada...
متن کاملClassification of polarimetric radar images based on SVM and BGSA
Classification of land cover is one of the most important applications of radar polarimetry images. The purpose of image classification is to classify image pixels into different classes based on vector properties of the extractor. Radar imaging systems provide useful information about ground cover by using a wide range of electromagnetic waves to image the Earthchr('39')s surface. The purpose ...
متن کاملRainfall retrieval from polarimetric X-band radar measurements
Dual polarization radars have shown considerable improvement of quantitative estimation of rainfall rate and raindrop size distribution (DSD) parameters. Most studies have been done with S and C-band radars and only a few studies with higher X-band weather radars. X-band radars have the advantages of lower cost and higher differential phase shift but with higher attenuation too. Furthermore, th...
متن کاملHydrometeor classification with a C-band polarimetric radar
The scattering of electromagnetic energy by hydrometeors forms the basis of radar meteorology. Knowledge of hydrometeor types can be very important in particular applications. The occurrence of mixed-phase conditions, especially the melting of snow and ice, impacts on the accuracy of radar-based precipitation estimation and the discrimination of rain and hail is often very important in severe w...
متن کاملIndoor Polarimetric Radar Measurements on Vegetation Samples at L, S, C and X Band
An entropy based decomposition technique is applied to some wide-band polarimetric data sets acquired under fully controlled conditions. The measured targets include various tree types and maize plants. The acquired data are analyzed firstly by displaying the loci of the Entropy-Alpha pairs both as a function of the working frequency and the incidence angle. This analysis shows which are the do...
