Rain‐rate estimation algorithm using signal attenuation of Ka‐band cloud radar
Abstract A millimetre‐wave cloud radar has limitations for observing heavy rainfall because the short wavelength leads to strong attenuation from raindrops. However, recent studies have attempted to estimate the rain rate using attenuation, which becomes greater as the rain intensity increases. The...
