A Re‐Examination of the Reversal in Vertical Velocity Profiles at 12 km Altitude Measured by the Middle and Upper Atmosphere Radar Over a 38‐Year Period (1987–2024)

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 23, 16 December 2025.
Abstract Vertical air motion is a key factor in many meteorological phenomena, yet measuring it remains challenging. VHF Stratosphere‐Troposphere radars, however, provide methods to measure vertical air velocities (W) $W)$ in the tropo‐stratosphere. From Middle and Upper (MU) atmosphere radar data spanning 38 years (1987–2024), we found that the well ...

Tropospheric Propagation Effects Extracted From ADS‐B Messages

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study explores the use of ADS‐B messages to estimate tropospheric effects, effectively isolating atmospheric influences from interference. The approach enables independent lower atmosphere studies and offers a cost‐free supplementary method for satellite applications, benefiting GNSS systems, especially at low elevation angles where multipath and ...

Experimental results of maritime moving target detection based on passive bistatic radar using non-cooperative radar illuminators

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
A signal processing method of passive bistatic radar using non-cooperative pulse radar illuminators is proposed. The proposed method estimates unknown parameters of transmitting radar signal from direct-path signal, and uses estimated parameters for ...

Three-step ground moving target detection method for bistatic forward-looking SAR

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
Detecting ground moving target in bistatic forward-looking synthetic aperture radar (BFSAR) has become increasingly important in military and civil field. Compared with pulse Doppler radar, the long observation time and high resolution of BFSAR will lead

Investigations of the lower and middle atmosphere at the Arecibo Observatory and a description of the new VHF radar project [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The atmospheric science research at the Arecibo Observatory is performed by means of (active) radar methods and (passive) optical methods. The active methods utilize the 430 NHz radar, the S-band radar on 2380 MHz, and a recently constructed Very High ...

Micro-Doppler Signal Time-Frequency Algorithm Based on STFRFT

open access: yesSensors, 2016
This paper proposes a time-frequency algorithm based on short-time fractional order Fourier transformation (STFRFT) for identification of a complicated movement targets. This algorithm, consisting of a STFRFT order-changing and quick selection method, is
