Wind turbine load validation in wakes using wind field reconstruction techniques and nacelle lidar wind retrievals [PDF]
Abstract. This study proposes two methodologies for improving the accuracy of wind turbine load assessment under wake conditions by combining nacelle-mounted lidar measurements with wake wind field reconstruction techniques. The first approach consists of incorporating wind measurements of the wake flow field, obtained from nacelle lidars, into random,

A pragmatic Bayesian approach to wind field retrieval [PDF]
The ERS-1 Satellite was launched in July 1991 by the European Space Agency into a polar orbit at about 800 km, carrying a C-band scatterometer. A scatterometer measures the amount of backscatter microwave radiation reflected by small ripples on the ocean surface induced by sea-surface winds, and so provides instantaneous snap-shots of wind flow over ...

Effect of precipitation on synthetic aperture radar hurricane wind field retrieval
C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) with all-weather observation capability is gradually being used for the high-resolution observation of hurricane. The extreme wind speed in hurricanes is retrieved by combining the co- and cross-polarized SAR signals.
