This paper proposes a hybrid method for identifying second-trip echoes using phase modulation and polarimetric technology in pulse Doppler radars, which significantly reduces misidentification in regions of high turbulence and severe wind shear. Compared to existing methods, the hybrid approach demonstrates superior performance in independent test datasets, particularly in challenging meteorological conditions.
For pulse Doppler radars, the widely used method for identifying second-trip echoes (STs) in the signal processing level yields significant misidentification in regions of high turbulence and severe wind shear. In the data processing level, although the novel algorithm for ST identification does not yield significant misidentification in specific regions, its overall identification performance is not ideal. Therefore, this paper proposes a hybrid method for the identification of STs using phase modulation (signal processing) and polarimetric technology (data processing). Through this approach, most of the STs are removed, whereas most of the first-trip echoes (FTs) remain untouched. Compared with the existing method using a signal quality index filter with an optimized threshold, the hybrid method exhibits superior performance (Heidke skill scores of 0.98 versus 0.88) on independent test datasets, especially in high-turbulence and severe-wind-shear regions, for which misidentification is significantly reduced.
