| 内容記述 | A wind profile radar demonstration project was sponsored by the Space Transportation System (STS) Program Office to study the feasibility of incorporating continuous, high time resolution radar wind data into STS operations. This project required wind profile radars to be deployed in the vicinity of the Shuttle launch site into an environment quite unlike typical VHF profiler sites. Two 50 MHz radars were operated at the Kennedy Space Center in environments that were noisy in terms of RFI, large stationary ground clutter sources, non-stationary clutter sources, and heavy local aircraft traffic. Processing compensation for these operational constraints magnified design limitations of the research-level radars used in the demonstration. This report addresses the importance of system design for unique or particular applications with reference to finite radiation patterns, zero-Doppler processing, radar frequency, and beam pointing. |
