The X-WALD project was launched to run ad hoc airborne measurements finalized to investigate the potentials of polarimetry in weather radars for civil aircrafts. In this contribution, the outcome of the project will be presented, and in particular the results of two measurements campaigns, carried out in The Netherlands and in Italy, using a low-power X-band fully polarimetric radar mounted in the nose of two different aircraft.

Abstract

The X-WALD project was launched to run ad hoc airborne measurements finalized to investigate the potentials of polarimetry in weather radars for civil aircrafts. In this contribution, the outcome of the project will be presented, and in particular the results of two measurements campaigns, carried out in The Netherlands and in Italy, using a low-power X-band fully polarimetric radar mounted in the nose of two different aircraft.
