Application of a ground-based, multi-channel microwave radiometer to the alerting of low-level windshear at an airport
Low-level windshear, which refers to sustained changes of headwind of 15 knots (7.7 m/s) or more over a distance of several hundred metres to about 4 km, could be hazardous to the aircraft flying close to the ground. This paper presents the preliminary results in the application of a radiometer in t...
