1 Latest Results from the RPG-FMCW-94-SP Cloud Radar (or, to stay in line with WG-3: a few slides on a 89 GHz radiometer with some active 94 GHz extensions to give the radiometer-derived LWP a bit more vertical structure...) Thomas Rose, Harald Czekala, Martin Philipp RPG Radiometer Physics GmbH 1
2 RPG-FMCW-94-SP Cloud Radar 94 GHz FMCW Doppler Cloud Radar: Very High Sensitivity (down to -60 dbz) High Dynamic Range (-60 to +20 dbz) Complete Rain Mitigation System Compact and Low Cost Full Networking Capability (TCP/IP) Includes 89 GHz Channel for Measurement of: Integrated Liquid Water Path (LWP) RPG Radiometer Physics GmbH 2

Data levels: L1: calibrated dbz, L2: retrieved data netcdf (CF convention), proprietary binary, ASCII Strong dew blower (approx m³/h), radomes with hydrophobic coating,optional heater (additional 2-4 kw) Automatic weather station with P, T, RH, RR, Snow, WS, WD Baseline: mounted on a fixed stand of 0.5 m height Optional: scanner unit for full sky scanning capability cm³ (with antennas),( cm³ (box only) Approx. 280 kg/80 kg with/without stand & blower (w/o scanner) RPG Radiometer Physics GmbH 4
5 FMCW Radar Hardware Ground based radar requires strong blower / heater: The contamination of the microwave windows by snow, ice, rain leads to unacceptably high reflectivity errors or even blindness of the instrument Even small contaminations with rain droplets, condensation or snow are causing big errors in LWP retrievals from the direct detection channel Solution: Strong air flow of 2x2000 m³/h over the windows Air can optionally be heated. Power: 2 kw to 4 kw RPG Radiometer Physics GmbH 5
