Abstract

This paper demonstrates how the fully adaptive radar framework can be applied to cloud profiling radars. A simulation based on the GEOS5 nature run dataset is introduced in which the cloud profiling radar continuously adapts its pulse repetition frequency (PRF) such that the unambiguous range is 1.2 times the cloud column height. This process maximizes the (PRF) which would in turn maximize the unambiguous velocity estimate.
