NEXRAD or Nexrad (Next-Generation Radar) is a network of 159 high-resolution S-band Doppler weather radars operated by the National Weather Service (NWS), an agency of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) within the United States Department of Commerce, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) within the Department of Transportation, and the U.S. Air Force within the ...
An object at height h above the ground and slant range R forms an angle α that can be calculated through sin α = h / R.By re-arrangement, R = h / sin α, or R = h csc α. The radar equation states that the signal received from an object, P e, varies inversely with the 4th power of range and directly as the square of the antenna gain, G, such that P e ~ G 2 / R 4.
The actual mechanism, durations, radar pulse pattern, power levels, and frequency bands on which DFS is enforced vary by jurisdiction. DFS is mandated for the 5470–5725 MHz U-NII band in United States by the FCC. [2] DFS is mandatory for the 5250–5350 and 5470–5725 MHz bands in India. [3]
A NEXRAD weather radar currently used by the National Weather Service (NWS) is a 10 cm wavelength (2700-3000 MHz) radar capable of a complete scan every 4.5 to 10 minutes, depending on the number of angles scanned, and depending on whether or not MESO-SAILS [7] is active, which adds a supplemental low-level scan while completing a volume scan ...
