Abstract :
The algorithm of signal processing for measurement of nonuniform rain profile by double frequency radar is presented. The algorithm excludes data ambiguity for small rain intensity and based on the use of the iteration procedure proposed. This permits to take into account signal attenuation in rain and restore rain intensity with graphical accuracy.
