    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEXRAD

    NEXRAD or Nexrad (Next-Generation Radar) is a network of 159 high-resolution S-band Doppler weather radars operated by the National Weather Service (NWS), an agency of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) within the United States Department of Commerce, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) within the Department of Transportation, and the U.S. Air Force within the ...

    Weather radar in Norman, Oklahoma with rainshaft Weather (WF44) radar dish University of Oklahoma OU-PRIME C-band, polarimetric, weather radar during construction. Weather radar, also called weather surveillance radar (WSR) and Doppler weather radar, is a type of radar used to locate precipitation, calculate its motion, and estimate its type (rain, snow, hail etc.).

  4. Mobile radar observation of tornadoes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_radar_observation...

    Mobile doppler weather radars have been used on dozens of scientific and academic research projects from their invention in the late 1900s. [1] One problems facing meteorological researchers was the fact that mesonets and other ground-based observation methods were being deployed too slow in order to accurately measure and study high-impact atmospheric phenomena. [1]

  5. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

    Doppler effect. The emitted signal toward the car is reflected back with a variation of frequency that depends on the speed away/toward the radar (160 km/h). This is only a component of the real speed (170 km/h). The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift), named after Austrian physicist Christian Doppler who proposed it in 1842, is the difference ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Technology...

    4.3 m (14 ft) Azimuth. 360°. Advanced Technology Demonstrator (ATD) is an experimental weather radar system using Phased Array technology seeking to enhance Phased Array capabilities with the addition of dual-polarity and pulse compression. [ 1] Its predecessor, MPAR, was the first large-scale PAR experiment taken on by NOAA in 2003, and was ...

  8. Pulse-Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-Doppler_radar

    A pulse-Doppler radar is a radar system that determines the range to a target using pulse-timing techniques, and uses the Doppler effect of the returned signal to determine the target object's velocity. It combines the features of pulse radars and continuous-wave radars, which were formerly separate due to the complexity of the electronics.

  9. History of wildlife tracking technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Wildlife...

    Early radar technologies, such as WSR-57 (Weather Surveillance Radar - 1957), have been replaced by the Next Generation Weather Radar program which was installed in segments during the 1990s. Also known as WSR-88D (Weather Surveillance Radar 88 Doppler), NEXRAD is a doppler system that replaced older non-Doppler meteorological radars.
