Abstract

Atmospheric turbulence has been shown to have measurable effects on the angle-of-arrival (AOA) of radar beams, but these effects are on the order of a few microradians, which is a negligible level for most applications. In this paper, we present a theory describing this phenomenon and compare this theory to one-way measurements made over a 3.5 km path and two-way measurements made over a 25 km path using an X-band interferometric radar.

雷达波束在大气湍流中的到达角

大气湍流已被证明对雷达波束的到达角(AOA)有可测量的影响，但这些影响在几个微度的量级上，这对大多数应用来说是一个可以忽略不计的水平。在本文中，我们提出了一种描述这种现象的理论，并将该理论与使用x波段干涉雷达在3.5公里路径上进行的单向测量和在25公里路径上进行的双向测量进行比较。
