Abstract
A method for estimation of Doppler spectrum, its moments, and polarimetric variables on pulsed weather radars which uses over sampled echo components at a rate several times larger than the reciprocal of transmitted pulse length. The variables are estimated by suitably combining weighted averages of the over sampled signals in range with usual processing of samples at a fixed range location. The invention may be Used on pulsed weather radar, lidars, sonars and accoustic flow meters.
