Scattering database in the millimeter and submillimeter wave range of 100–1000 GHz for nonspherical ice particles
[1] The inference of ice cloud properties from spaceborne sensors is sensitive to the retrieval algorithms and satellite sensors used. To approach a better understanding of ice cloud properties, it is necessary to combine satellite measurements from multiple platforms and sensors operating in visible, infrared, and millimeter and submillimeterwave regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The si...
متن کاملMillimeter and Submillimeter Wave Applications
Many applications of millimeter and submillimeter wave systems have been suggested in the literature but, in general, they have not yet beea employed in practice to any significant degree. This report discusses the advantages and limitations of this frequency region and reviews the potential applications under the categories of radar, communications, radiometry and instrumentation. One of the p...
متن کاملScattering and absorption property database for nonspherical ice particles in the near- through far-infrared spectral region.
The single-scattering properties of ice particles in the near- through far-infrared spectral region are computed from a composite method that is based on a combination of the finite-difference time-domain technique, the T-matrix method, an improved geometrical-optics method, and Lorenz-Mie theory. Seven nonspherical ice crystal habits (aggregates, hexagonal solid and hollow columns, hexagonal p...
متن کاملRadar backscattering properties of nonspherical ice crystals at 94 GHz
[1] The millimeter wavelength radar backscattering properties at 94 GHz for six nonspherical ice crystals, which include hexagonal column, hollow, plate, bullet rosette, aggregate, and droxtal with 46 maximum dimensions ranging from 2 to 10,500 mm, are investigated using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) method and Lorenz-Mie theory. It is found that the radar backscattering cross section...
متن کاملThe 4 GHz Bandwidth Millimeter - Wave Radar
The landmark construction of the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA)–Lincoln C-band Observables Radar (ALCOR) at Kwajalein Atoll in 1970 sparked significant interest in the ballistic missile defense (BMD) and satellite-identification communities [1]. ALCOR's 50 cm range resolution using 512 MHz bandwidth data confirmed the viability of valuable new BMD discrimination techniques and provide...
