Calculation of turbulence intensity based on spectrum width data of a Doppler LIDAR

چکیده
In addition to low-level windshear (below 1600 feet), low-level turbulence could also adversely affect arriving/departing aircraft at the airport. Turbulent airflow may occur in clear-air/non-rainy weather conditions, e.g. terrain effect at the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) or building’s disruptions at Haneda Airport (Tokyo International Airport) in Japan. Such airflow disturbances could be monitored by LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) systems.

Obstacle Classification Method Based On 2D LIDAR Database
We propose obstacle classification method based on 2D LIDAR Database. The existing obstacle classification method based on 2D LIDAR, has an advantage in t erms of accuracy and shor ter calculation time. However, it was difficult to classifier the type of obstacle and therefore accurate path planning was not pos sible. In order to overcome this problem, a method of classifying obstacle type base...
متن کاملISAR Image Improvement Using STFT Kernel Width Optimization Based On Minimum Entropy Criterion
Nowadays, Radar systems have many applications and radar imaging is one of the most important of these applications. Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) is used to form an image from moving targets. Conventional methods use Fourier transform to retrieve Doppler information. However, because of maneuvering of the target, the Doppler spectrum becomes time-varying and the image is blurred. Joi...
متن کاملHigh Altitude Turbulence Detection Using an Airborne Doppler
Air turbulence is a serious problem that affects airline operations. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is developing an airborne Doppler LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) for on-board turbulence detection. Flight experiments demonstrated that a highaltitude prototype can measure wind speeds at the more than 9 km range at altitude of 12 km. This paper describes the development of t...
متن کاملCharacterization of Turbulence in Wind Turbine Wakes under Different Stability Conditions from Static Doppler LiDAR Measurements
Wake characteristics are of great importance for wind park performance and turbine loads. While wind tunnel experiments provided a solid base for the basic understanding of the structure and dynamics of wind turbine wakes, the consequent step forward to characterize wakes is full-scale measurements in real atmospheric boundary layer conditions under different stability regimes. Scanning Doppler...
