- Abstract
- To overcome blind spots of an ordinary weather radar which scans horizontally at a high altitude, a weather radar which operates vertically, so called an atmospheric profiler, is needed. In this paper, a K-band radar for observing rainfall vertically is introduced, and measurement results of rainfall are shown and discussed. For better performance of the atmospheric profiler, the radar which has high resolution even with low transmitted power is designed. With this radar, a melting layer is detected and some results that show characteristics of the melting layer are measured well.
