Relationship of differential reflectivity to correlation in dual-polarisation radar
Abstract
The differential-reflectivity technique and the correlation technique in dual-polarization radars are compared. It is shown that the two technologies can provide equivalent information; the technologies for the two measurements are dissimilar, however, and it is not obvious which is easier or more accurate.
