Quantitative error analysis of polarimetric phased-array radar weather measurements to reveal radar performance and configuration potential by J. Ho, J. Ho, Z. Li, G. Zhang, G. Zhang

“…However, as noted in previous studies, the standard deviation and biases of polarimetric variables from Horus exhibited varying error characteristics depending on the electronic steering angle from broadside. The present results suggest that PPPARs may have difficulties in producing high-quality polarimetric data at large steering angles, and further investigation on CPPARs is required to find the optimal design for future weather applications.…”
