Coding schemes and Applications for Weather Radars

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we describe the evolution of a pair of polyphase coded waveform for use in second trip suppression in weather radar. The polyphase codes were designed and tested on NASA weather radar. The NASA dual-frequency, dual-polarization Doppler radar (D3R) was developed primarily as a ground validation tool for the GPM satellite dual-frequency radar. Recently, the D3R radar was upgraded with new versions of digital receiver hardware and firmware, which supports larger filter lengths and multiple phase coded waveforms, and also newer IF sub-systems. This has enhanced the capabilities of radar manifolds.
