"Analysis of C Band radar observation from RELAMPAGO field campaign using signal processing techniques"

In this study involving radar remote sensing the objective is to understand the various aspects of C-band radar observations of convective storms that occurred in Cordoba which is located in central west Argentina from the RELAMPAGO field campaign using signal processing techniques. Both Doppler and polarimetric observations are used in spectral analysis for weather radar to represent polarimetric variables as a function of radial velocity. The properties of Doppler power spectrum as well as spectral polarimetric variables are analysed to derive insights about the microphysical and dynamical characteristics of precipitation systems.

"Polarimetric Signal Processing"

The objective of simulation study was to reconstruct the I/Q data using reverse signal processing and estimating the polarimetric variables. The distributed weather targets were modeled using a covariance matrix method and polarimetric variables estimated using Pulse Pair Processing. The data quality analysis was conducted using “RELAMPAGO CSU-CHIVO data” collected by CHIVO radar.
