Item Open Access An analysis technique for deriving vector winds and in-beam incidence angles from radar interferometer measurements(American Meteorological Society, 1992-02) Larsen, M. F.; Palmer, R. D.; Fukao, S.; Woodman Pollitt, Ronald Francisco; Yamamoto, M; Tsuda, T; Kato, S.We present a method for deriving horizontal velocities, vertical velocities, and in-beam incidence angles from radar interferometer data. All parameters are calculated from the slope and intercept of straight lines fitted in a least-squares sense to the variation of the signal phase as a function of radial velocity for each pair of receiving antennas. Advantages of the method are that the calculations are computationally fast and simple, and the analysis leads to relatively simple expressions for the uncertainty in the velocity measurements.
