| Abstract(in English) | To study the calibration technique for the TRMM precipitation radar, which consists of the active array radar, an experiment using an active radar calibrator (ARC) and the bread-board model (BBM) for the TRMM radar was conducted. The ARC has three functions of beacon transmitter, radar receiver, and transponder. After explanation of a method to obtain the antenna gain for the active array radar, the transmitting and receiving antenna gains of TRMM-BBM were calculated from the measurement results, which exhibit excellent agreement with the designed antenna gains. The method tested here is applicable to the TRMM radar calibration in the orbit. |
