Prospects for measuring rainfall using propagation differential phase in X-and Ka-radar bands

Model calculations and measurements of the specific propagation and backscatter differential phase shifts (KDP and deltao, respectively) in rain are discussed for X- (lambda - 3cm) and Ka-band (lambda -0.8 cm) radar wavelengths.
