Abstract

Doppler radars apply Doppler effects. In this chapter, the basic theory of Doppler velocity measurements by Doppler radars is discussed, where principles of Doppler radar, measurable limit of Doppler velocity, and expansion of Doppler velocity measurement range are included. Next, methods of applying Doppler radar, i.e., the volume velocity processing (VVP) method, the velocity azimuth display (VAD) method, and observations with bistatic Doppler radar are discussed. Finally, measurements by multiple monostatic Doppler radars are shown, where the independent scanning method, COPLAN, the distance of two Doppler radars, and wind velocity observations with three or more radars are covered.
