Estimating Mean Surface Backscatter from GPM Surface Backscatter Observations

open access: yesEng, 2021
The radar on the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission observes precipitation at 13.6 GHz (Ku-band) and 35.6 GHz (Ka-band) and also receives echoes from the earth’s surface. Statistics of surface measurements for non-raining conditions are saved

Effect of wall thickness on broadband design of a Ka-band TE21-mode coupler

open access: yesJournal of Electronic Science and Technology, 2021
Commonly, the classical formulas for designing TE21-mode coupler are suitable for the operating frequency under Ka-band by virtue of ignoring wall thickness.

Modeling Ka-band scintillation as a fractal process [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 1999
We propose a model that describes the signal fading process due to scintillation in the presence of rain. We analyzed a data set of uplink (30 GHz) and downlink (20 GHz) attenuation values averaged over 1 s intervals. The data are samples relative to ten significant events, for a total of 180 000 s recorded at the Spino d'Adda (North of Italy) station ...

Cloud attenuation studies of the six major climatic zones of Africa for Ka and V satellite system design

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2014
Cloud cover statistics, cloud base and top height, cloud temperature, frequency of precipitation, freezing height, total cloud liquid water content (TCLWC) and cloud attenuation data have been obtained for the six major climatic zones of Africa.

Analyzing satellite and airborne Ka-band passive microwave observations over land for temperature and vegetation monitoring

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing
Passive microwave observations at Ka-band (36‐37 GHz) have been widely available for decades, but their full potential for land applications has been hardly exploited. This study analyzed Ka‐band observations at different spatial scales.

Estimating Ocean Vector Winds and Currents Using a Ka-Band Pencil-Beam Doppler Scatterometer

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Ocean surface currents and winds are tightly coupled essential climate variables, and, given their short time scales, observing them at the same time and resolution is of great interest.
