Abstract

This paper studies Doppler spectra of the reflections from rain at different polarizations. Particularly, it presents results of Doppler-polarimetric radar signal modelling and real data processing that show correlation between Differential Doppler Velocity (DDV), which is the difference between mean Doppler velocities at horizontal and vertical polarizations, and parameters of rain including rain microstructure and turbulence in rain.
