Estimating tropical rain attenuation on the Earth-satellite path using radar data
Radar-return echoes, known as ‘reflectivity’, are exploited in the course of estimating rain attenuation along a slant path. Relevant radar gates or ‘range bins’ are identified to correlate a specific satellite path. The reflectivity value of each range bin is converted to rainfall rate using est...
