If there are multiple things out there, say more raindrops, more beams will bounce back. What radar can do is measure the time it takes between emitting that pulse and the pulse coming back. With ...

Tune into any TV weather report and you’ll hear the words “Doppler radar” as meteorologists track storms across California. But how does Doppler radar work? And how accurate is it? The concept of ...

Doppler radar uses the Doppler effect to measure the radial velocity of targets in the antenna's directional beam. The Doppler effect shifts the received frequency up or down based on the radial ...

Using a spectrum analyzer for pulsed measurements has always required a careful understanding and knowledge of the parameters of the pulse signal, as well as the subsequent operation of the spectrum ...

A vertically scanning, airborne, pulse-Doppler radar is described. Data processing methods to yield pseudodual-Doppler horizontal winds are presented. Results of an intercomparison with a ground-based ...

A pulse Doppler radar system operating at 35 GHz and having full polarization (linear and circular) diversity capability is described. Separate antennas are used for the transmitter and the receiver ...

System said to be capable of detecting turbulence and aircraft wake vortices in clear air EADS is developing a short-pulse Doppler laser radar system that it believes can detect turbulence and ...

Agilent Technologies (NYSE: A) today announced a range of cutting-edge capabilities that enable economical testing and evaluation of advanced radar and electronic-warfare (EW) systems. Spanning signal ...
