An ultra-wideband (UWB) array is presented for UHF-S band (0.19–2.3 GHz) communications with an emphasis on dual-linear polarisation and wide-angle scanning. The array achieves 12:1 impedance bandwidth for a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR)

This paper presents the design and measured results for an ultra-wideband aperture with excellent gain-bandwidth-scanning performance across a 190–2300 MHz bandwidth. The aperture uses a meta-material frequency selective surface to achieve $+/-$ 60

In this study the radiative impact of three separate cirrus anvil systems that occurred during the Maritime Continent Thunderstorm Experiment is investigated. Retrievals of microphysical cloud properties and an independent radar measurement are used

Millimeter-wavelength (MMW) cloud radars operating at Ka band (35 GHz) and W band (95 GHz) are popular atmospheric research tools because they are compact, have low prime power requirements, and are highly sensitive to small hydrometeors. In order to

Dual-antenna radar designs avoid using a transmit/receive switch. In order to measure radar reflectivity accurately and to avoid a general decrease in system sensitivity, these systems require precise alignment of their high-gain/narrow-beamwidth ant

Cloud measurements at millimeter-wave frequencies are affected by attenuation due to atmospheric gases, clouds, and precipitation. Estimation of the true equivalent radar reflectivity, Ze, is complicated because extinction mechanisms are not well cha

A continental stratus cloud layer was studied by advanced ground-based remote sensing instruments and aircraft probes on 30 April 1994 from the Cloud and Radiation Testbed site in north-central Oklahoma. The boundary layer structure clearly resembled

Millimeter-wave Doppler spectra obtained from the dual-frequency Cloud Profiling Radar System (CPRS) are used to retrieve both the drop size distribution and the vertical air motion in rain. CPRS obtains collocated spectra at W and Ka bands through a

Multifrequency radar measurements collected at 2.8 (S band), 33.12 (Ka band), and 94.92 GHz (W band) are processed using a neural network to estimate median particle size and peak number concentration in ice-phase clouds composed of dry crystals or a

This paper describes the identification of regions of ice, cloud droplets, rain, mixed-phase hydrometers, and insects in stratiform clouds using 33 and 95 GHz radar measurements of reflectivity, linear-depolarization ratio (LDR), dual-wavelength rati
