Abstract

The maximum height performance of the 50, 405 nd 915 MHz Colorado wind profiles is computed from the wind profiler database. Results show that even though the 50 MHz profiler has the largest seasonal variation in the maximum height coverage, it also has the greatest height coverage. In addition, it also has a greater increase in height for the same increase in sensitivity. On the basis of thew measurements we predict the height coverage of the 405 MHz wind profiler for the proposed wind profiler network.
