Abstract

The 1.29 GHz wind profiler radar is a remote observation device that is useful not only for calculating wind vectors in clear air, but also for detecting rainfall. The Doppler spectrum symmetry test is essential in the horizontal wind treatment process. Since asymmetry may be detected in rainfall cases, it is necessary to reflect in the wind calculation algorithm that the sign of the radial velocity is the same according to the magnitude of the vertical velocity. In the summer of 2017 (June, July), a wind vector calculation algorithm by Bragg scattering and Rayleigh scattering was developed using Changwon wind profiler data, and verified by comparing it with radiosonde data at 6 hour intervals.

1.29 GHz 윈드프로파일러 레이더는 청천의 바람 벡터 산출뿐만 아니라 강우 탐지에도 유용한 원격 관측 장비이다. 수평 바람 처리 과정에서 도플러 스펙트럼의 대칭성 검사는 필수 사항이다. 강우가 있을 때는 대칭성이 나타나지 않을 수 있기 때문에 연직속도의 크기에 따라 시선속도의 부호가 같아지는 것을 바람 산출 알고리즘에 반영하여야 한다. 2017년 여름철(6월, 7월) 창원 윈드프로파일러 자료로 브래그 산란과 레일리 산란에 의한 바람 벡터 산출 알고리즘을 개발하고, 대칭성을 고려하여 품질 관리된 윈드프로파일러 바람벡터를 6시간 간격의 라디오존데 자료와 비교하여 검증하였다.
