Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of microwave remote sensing, and particularly relates to a method and system for synchronously retrieving precipitation and three-dimensional wind field of a Doppler precipitation radar. Background Art
[0002] The measurement of precipitation and atmospheric wind field is of great significance in meteorology and weather forecasting. Precipitation is a key link in the earth's water cycle and is crucial for water resource management, agricultural production, and the maintenance of ecosystems. The atmospheric wind field, as an important dynamic factor driving weather systems, not only controls the generation and transport of precipitation but also is closely related to the evolution of weather systems such as cyclones and anticyclones. By accurately measuring precipitation and wind field, the interaction mechanism between them can be revealed, providing reliable data support for weather forecasting, climate change research, and disaster prevention and mitigation.
[0003] Currently, significant progress has been made in precipitation measurement technologies, covering various observation means such as ground, air, and satellite. Weather radars retrieve precipitation intensity and structure through the spatial distribution of radar reflectivity factors and can achieve large-scale real-time monitoring. Satellite observations provide important support for global precipitation measurement, especially in areas where it is difficult to deploy ground instruments such as the ocean and mountainous regions. Satellites based on microwave and infrared sensors (such as TRMM, GPM) can capture the spatial distribution and intensity of precipitation, with the characteristics of wide coverage and high time resolution. However, precipitation radars cannot measure the velocity of targets and cannot obtain velocity information.
[0004] Currently, the main means for detecting atmospheric wind fields mainly include spaceborne infrared "cloud-drift wind" technology, ground-based wind profiler radars, spaceborne lidar wind radars, etc. Due to the limitation of penetration ability, spaceborne infrared "cloud-drift wind" technology cannot obtain the vertical distribution information of the atmospheric wind field within clouds; ground-based wind profiler radars are restricted by natural conditions such as terrain and are difficult to deploy in ocean and remote land areas, making it impossible to achieve global networked observations; spaceborne lidar wind radars, such as "Aladin" carried on the "Aeolus" satellite, can accurately detect the atmospheric wind field in clear sky areas. However, since lasers cannot penetrate clouds, the "Aeolus" satellite cannot obtain the in-cloud wind field data in cloud-covered areas, and the global average cloud coverage rate exceeds 66%, and the cloud coverage rate in coastal areas can reach 80% - 90%, resulting in a large amount of key wind field data being missing. Conical scanning Doppler radars have the ability to detect the three-dimensional wind field within clouds, but the calculation accuracy of the three-dimensional wind field depends on the quality of the radial velocity data of target particles. If the radial velocity data contains a large amount of information in areas without meteorological targets, it will lead to a decrease in inversion accuracy, and it is necessary to determine the precipitation area through radar reflectivity factor measurement data and screen the radial velocity in the precipitation area. In addition, for Doppler precipitation radars, the measured radial velocity includes the vertical falling velocity of particles caused by gravity, so the influence needs to be removed during the inversion process to obtain an accurate estimate of the three-dimensional wind field.

[0101] The technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0102] Embodiment 1
[0103] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a method for synchronously retrieving precipitation and three-dimensional wind field by a Doppler weather radar. Based on the echo power of the precipitation radar, the reflectivity factor of the observation area is determined; based on the radar reflectivity factor, the precipitation area is determined and the precipitation particle size is calculated; according to the precipitation particle size, the vertical falling velocity of the precipitation particles is calculated; according to the echo phase of the precipitation radar, the radial velocity of the precipitation particles is calculated; the vertical falling velocity of the precipitation particles is removed to obtain the radial movement velocity of the precipitation particles caused by the wind field; based on the radial movement velocity of the precipitation particles caused by the wind field, combined with the radar observation geometry and the three-dimensional wind field inversion algorithm, the three-dimensional wind field of the precipitation area is retrieved.
[0104] The method specifically includes:
[0105] Step 1) Based on the echo power P of the precipitation radar, the reflectivity factor of the observation area is determined. The radar reflectivity factor Z is calculated by the following formula: r : m
[0106]
[0107] where r is the distance between the target and the radar, λ is the electromagnetic wave wavelength, |K| is the dielectric constant, G at is the transmitting antenna gain, G ar is the receiving antenna gain, θ 0a is the cross-track beam width, θ 0c is the along-track beam width, c is the speed of light, τ is the transmitted pulse width, P t is the transmitted power, and P r is the received power.
[0108] Step 2) Based on the radar reflectivity factor obtained in Step 1, the precipitation area is determined and the precipitation particle size is calculated.
[0109] Take the logarithm of the radar reflectivity factor obtained in Step 1 to obtain dBZ:
[0110] dBZ = 10log 10 (Z m )
[0111] Among all the observation data, filter out the data with dBZ value greater than 10 dB and determine it as the precipitation area.
[0112] When the dBZ value ranges from 10 to 40 dB, the precipitation intensity I (unit: mm / h) is determined according to the following formula:
[0113] Z m = 200I 1.6
[0114] When the dBZ value is greater than 40 dB, the precipitation intensity I is determined according to the following formula
[0115] Z m = 486I 1.37
[0116] Through the precipitation intensity I, the attenuation parameter Λ is determined as follows:
[0117] Λ = 4.11I -0.21
[0118] Through the attenuation parameter Λ and the normalized number concentration constant N0 (8000 m -3 mm -1 ), the distribution N(D) of the raindrop particle diameter D is determined:
[0119] N(D) = N0e -ΛD
[0120] The average particle diameter D is determined through numerical integration mean (unit: mm):
[0121]
[0122] Step 3) Through the precipitation particle size obtained in Step 2), the vertical falling velocity of the precipitation particles is calculated.
[0123] For the precipitation scenario, when its dBZ value is greater than 10 dB, according to the average particle diameter D of the particles mean , the vertical falling velocity v(D) of the particles can be determined:
[0124] v(D) = 1300(D mean *0.1) 0.5
[0125] where D mean is in the unit of mm and v(D) is in the unit of cm / s.
[0126] Step 4) The echo phase is calculated from the original echo signal of the precipitation radar;
[0127] The signal emitted by the radar is a linear frequency modulation pulse signal, as shown in the following formula:
[0128] s(t) = exp(j2π[f c t + 0.5αt 2 ), 0 ≤ t ≤ T p , α = W / T p
[0129] where, f c is the carrier frequency, α is the frequency modulation slope, T pis the pulse width, W is the signal bandwidth, t is the echo time within the pulse, and τ is the echo time shift.
[0130] The radar echo from a point target at R (delay τ = 2R / c) can be expressed as:
[0131] s(t) = exp(j2π[f c (t - τ) + 0.5α(t - τ) 2 )
[0132] The baseband echo obtained after down-conversion by the receiver can be expressed as:
[0133] s(t) = exp(-j2π[f c τ - 0.5α(t - τ) 2 )
[0134] The reference function of the matched filter constructed according to the transmit signal bandwidth, duration, and sampling rate can be expressed as:
[0135] s ref (t) = exp(-j2π[f c τ0 - 0.5α(t - τ0) 2 )
[0136] where τ0 is the reference signal time shift.
[0137] The pulse compression signal s out obtained through Fourier transform can be expressed as:
[0138] s out = IFFT{FFT[s(t)]·conj[FFT[s ref (t)]]}
[0139] Taking two adjacent pulse compression signals A = s out1 , B = s out2 , and N being the number of correlation points, the correlation coefficient of the adjacent pulse compression signals is:
[0140]
[0141] where μ A , μ B and σ A , σ B , are the mean and standard deviation of A and B respectively. ρ(A,B) is a complex number, and its phase is the interference phase.
[0142] Step 5) Calculate the radial velocity of the precipitation particles from the echo phase;
[0143] For the same target speed, different pulse repetition intervals will result in different phase values. By using the different phase values at two pulse repetition frequencies, the extended radial velocity can be calculated.
[0144] For the folded radial velocity, the phases at two pulse repetition frequencies are respectively: The corresponding folded radial velocities are respectively: where, V u1 , V u2 are the maximum unambiguous velocities corresponding to the pulse repetition intervals respectively. And V1 + MV u1 = V2 + MV u2 = V, M is the folding number, and V is the true speed. Let Then the true speed after unfolding can be calculated by the following formula:
[0145]
[0146] where is the extended maximum unambiguous velocity:
[0147] For the extended maximum unambiguous velocity calculated at each observation attitude, use the following formula to calculate n1 and n2 that make the equation hold:
[0148]
[0149] Using the calculated n1n2, calculate the unfolded radial velocities V 1True , V 2True :
[0150] V 1True = V1 + 2n1V u1
[0151] V 2True = V2 + 2n2V u2
[0152] Then average the unfolded radial velocities corresponding to each single pulse repetition interval calculated, and calculate the radial velocity V True :
[0153]
[0154] Since the radar is located on a moving platform, the calculated radial velocity is affected by both the target motion and the platform motion. After calculating the radial velocity, it is necessary to exclude the influence of the platform motion, and the platform motion V patformIn the geodetic coordinate system, the positive direction of the x-axis points to the geodetic north, the positive direction of the y-axis points to the geodetic east, and the positive direction of the z-axis is perpendicular to the plane where the x-axis and y-axis are located and points to the sky. V platform It consists of velocities in three directions: V north : the northward velocity of the platform movement, V east the eastward velocity of the platform movement, V up : the upward velocity of the platform movement:
[0155] V platform =(V north ,V east ,V up )
[0156] The platform movement affects the velocity measurement in the observation direction. The observation vector V of the radar observe is:
[0157]
[0158] where is the observation elevation angle at the satellite / aircraft, which is the angle between the radar observation direction and the positive direction of the z-axis; θ is the azimuth angle, which is the angle between the projection of the radar observation direction on the xy plane and the positive direction of the x-axis.
[0159] Then the projection V of the platform movement velocity in the observation direction platform_proj is calculated by the following formula:
[0160] V platform_proj =V platform ·V observe
[0161] The radial velocity V of the precipitation particles target is the calculated radial velocity V True minus the projection V of the platform movement velocity in the observation direction platform :
[0162] V target =V True -V platform_proj
[0163] Step 6) Remove the vertical falling velocity of the precipitation particles obtained in step 3) to obtain the radial movement velocity of the precipitation particles caused by the wind;
[0164] Subtract the projection of the precipitation vertical velocity v(D) obtained in step 3) in the radial direction from the target radial velocity V target to obtain the radial wind speed V wind , which can be expressed as
[0165]
[0166] Step 7) According to the radial motion velocity of precipitation particles caused by the wind field obtained in Step 6), combined with the radar observation geometry and the three-dimensional wind field inversion algorithm, the three-dimensional wind field of the precipitation area is inverted.
[0167] After obtaining the radial motion velocity of precipitation particles caused by the wind field, through more than three independent observations of the target area, the wind speed and wind direction in the target area are calculated by the least squares method.
[0168] Assume that the elevation angle and azimuth angle corresponding to the i-th (i≥3) observation in the target area are respectively expressed as and θ i , i represents the i-th observation quantity, and there are n observation quantities in total. Then the observation matrix is expressed by the following formula:
[0169]
[0170] The three-dimensional wind field of the atmosphere is calculated according to the following formula:
[0171]
[0172] Among them, V x , V y , V z are the velocities of the three-dimensional wind field of the atmosphere in the x, y, and z directions respectively. The definitions of the three directions are given in Step 5), and V wind is the radial wind speed calculated in Step 6), and p′ represents the transpose matrix of p.
