Broadband acoustic doppler current profiler United States Patent 5615173 Abstract: A system and method for measuring current velocities using coded-pulse broadband acoustic signals. Autocorrelation of two phase coded pulses which are in the water during a single transmission cycle is used to calculate a...
The systems and methods may also provide for the receipt and distribution of a current synthetic UV index through electronic devices over a geographical region, such as nationwide over the United States. For example, the current synthetic UV index may be calculated using the geographical location of...
acoustic dopplervalidationThe Mona Passage is a major shipping lane to the Panama Canal and a key route for illegal traffic into the United States. We have emplaced two high-frequency radar (HFR) stations on the west coast of Puerto Rico intended to allow mapping of the ocean surface velocity...
After decades of research and development, the WSR-88D (NEXRAD) network in the United States was upgraded with dual-polarization capability, providing polarimetric radar data (PRD) that have the potential to improve weather observations, quantification, forecasting, and warnings. The weather radar netw...
radar polarimetry has matured and been implemented on the network of Weather Surveillance Radars-1988 Doppler in the United States (WSR-88D), also referred to as NEXRAD (Next Generation Radar)(Doviak et al., 2000). Doppler weather radars in China and other countries have also been, or are ...

Based on the Doppler velocity, the derived radar reflectivity was classified as low-and high-rain cases. This model paved the way for blending reflectivity and attenuation to predict the rain rate. However, beyond reflectivity and attenuation, other factors, such as seasonal variation and rain ...
During the same period, in the 1960s, the United States also constructed the Haystack Radar, featuring a 36 m antenna aperture [35]. Due to the utilization of Arecibo and GSSR, as well as subsequent upgrades to the Haystack Radar sensor, the Haystack Radar has primarily been used for the...
