内容記述 | Research has begun on use of pulsed C-band radar in multistatic configuration to measure winds in absence of clouds. Experimental system based on principle of multistatic radar. Multiple receivers track on same point in sky to measure winds from different angles, obtaining complete wind vector at that point. Includes one radar station that both transmits and receives and one or more other stations receiving only. Advantage of multistatic configuration greatly reduces effects of ground clutter on receive-only stations. Objective of effort to develop capability to use wind-measurement data to predict, as early and accurately as possible, formation of local thunderstorms-with lead times of several hours. |
