Title: Performance Analysis of Vehicle-Borne Dual-Band Dual-Polarization Weather Radar
Abstract: Dual-band and dual-polarization are the trends of development of weather radar, particularly for real-time clouds and precipitation observation applications. In order to strengthen the monitoring of the spatial structure of the precipitation process and increase the possibility of artificial intervention in the weather, combining the advantages of Ka-band and X-band are used to measure clouds and light rain and other meteorological targets, respectively, this paper studies a vehicle-borne dual-band dual-polarization weather radar system. Based on the vehicle-borne, the system adopts Ka/X dual-bands for joint detection of meteorological targets of clouds, fog and precipitation, and it features single-band-independent detection and dual-band joint detection to enhance observation of clouds and light rain. The radar is equipped with a blind compensation pulse for each pulse period, which is used to compensate for the blind area that cannot be detected under normal conditions, and improves the radar range. First, this paper introduces in detail the system principle and configuration of the dual-band dual-polarization weather radar. Second, the operation parameters and performance are further analysed.
