Zusammenfassung |
A new model-based iterative technique to correct for
attenuation and differential attenuation and retrieve rain rate, based on a
neural-network scheme and a differential phase constraint, is presented.
Numerical simulations are used to investigate the efficiency and accuracy of
this approach named NIPPER. The simulator is based on a T-matrix solution
technique, while precipitation is characterized with respect to shape,
raindrop size distribution and orientation. A sensitivity analysis is
performed in order to evaluate the expected errors of this method. The
performance of the proposed methodology on radar measurements is evaluated
by using one-dimensional Gaussian shaped rain cell models and synthetic
radar data derived from disdrometer measurements. Numerical results are
discussed in order to evaluate the robustness of the proposed technique. |
