资源简介:
The 3 GHz Chilbolton Advanced Meteorological Radar (CAMRa) is the largest
steerable meteorological radar in the world. The 25 metre dish is located at
the Chilbolton Observatory in England (UK). It has dual-polarisation capability
and full Doppler capability. The scan-type is usually 'ppi' (plan-position
indicator, i.e. a horizontal scan) or 'rhi' (range-height indicator, i.e. a
vertical scan). Chilbolton Observatory is operated by the Radio Communications
Research Unit of CCLRC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory.
The characteristics of the radar are:
Frequency 3.075 GHz
Antenna diameter 25 metres
Peak power 560 kW
Pulse width 0.5 micro-sec
Pulse repetition frequency 610 Hz
System noise figure 1.3 dB
Beamwidth 0.28 degrees
Range resolution 300 m or 75 m
Cross-polar isolation -34 dB
Standard maximum slew rate 1 degree/sec
Unambiguous velocity 15 m/s
Data are available, and quicklook images, for 30 March 1999, 9 June 2000, 20
October 2000, 21 November 2o00, 28 February 2001.
