Identification and Suppression of Nonmeteorological Echoes Using Spectral Polarimetric Processing
The presence of nonmeteorological radar signals, such as sea clutter, birds, and chaff, is a continuous challenge for meteorological services in different regions. In this paper, we assign membership functions to these signals using spectral decompositions of copolar correlation coefficient, differential reflectivity, and differential phase. Additionally, we apply the dual-polarization spectral decomposition technique to identify and suppress nonmeteorological echoes present in radar observations. The performance of the polarimetric spectral filter is illustrated in observations from the C-band Helsinki University Kumpula radar. The results show that the spectral polarimetric filter may be a suitable solution for the mitigation of these nonmeteorological signals.
