The invention relates to the technical field of
radar remote sensing measurement, in particular to a method and a
system for measuring
snow thickness by using a dual-carrier-frequency interference
radar. The method comprises the following steps: generating a linear
frequency modulation signal, respectively modulating the linear
frequency modulation signal to a first carrier frequency channel and a second carrier frequency channel, and synchronously transmitting the linear
frequency modulation signal to a
snow area; synchronously receiving echo signals of the two channels, and respectively carrying out carrier frequency removal and dechirp
processing on the echo signals of the two channels to obtain
baseband echo signals of the two channels; respectively converting the
baseband echo signals of the two channels into a
frequency domain, executing high-order phase removal
processing, and then converting the
baseband echo signals back to a
time domain to obtain high-order phase removal
time domain echo signals of the two channels; performing interference operation on the high-order phase removed
time domain echo signals of the two channels to obtain an interference baseband signal between the two channels; and carrying out distance compression on the interference baseband signal to obtain an echo
frequency spectrum and then carrying out parameter
estimation so as to output a measurement result of the
snow thickness corresponding to the distance difference between the snow surface and the underlying interface.
