Popis: | The dual pulse repetition frequency (dual PRF) technique for extension of the unambiguous velocity interval is available on many operational Doppler weather radars. Radial velocity data obtained from a C-band Doppler radar running in dual PRF mode have been analyzed quantitatively. The standard deviation of the velocity estimates and the fraction of dealiasing errors are extracted and related using a simple model. A postprocessing algorithm for dual PRF velocity data, which removes noise and corrects dealiasing errors, has been developed and tested. It is concluded that the algorithm is very efficient and produces high quality velocity data. |
