  2. Bay News 9 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay_News_9

    In 2002, Bay News 9 was the first TV station in the area to provide a VIPIR Doppler weather radar system. In 2007, Bay News 9 became the first station in Florida, and one of only a handful of stations, to provide a Dual-Pole Doppler Radar system. On Monday, January 5, 2009, Bay News 9 launched its upgraded doppler radar system called Klystron 9 ...

  3. Weather radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_radar

    Weather radar, also called weather surveillance radar ( WSR) and Doppler weather radar, is a type of radar used to locate precipitation, calculate its motion, and estimate its type (rain, snow, hail etc.). Modern weather radars are mostly pulse-Doppler radars, capable of detecting the motion of rain droplets in addition to the intensity of the ...

  4. Klystron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klystron

    A klystron is a specialized linear-beam vacuum tube, invented in 1937 by American electrical engineers Russell and Sigurd Varian, [1] which is used as an amplifier for high radio frequencies, from UHF up into the microwave range. Low-power klystrons are used as oscillators in terrestrial microwave relay communications links, while high-power ...

  5. Canadian weather radar network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_weather_radar_network

    The Canadian weather radar network consists of 33 weather radars spanning Canada's most populated regions. Their primary purpose is the early detection of precipitation, its motion and the threat it poses to life and property. Each had until 2018 a range of 256 km (159 mi) in radius around the site to detect reflectivity, 3 angles with a range ...

  6. Twystron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twystron

    By combining a klystron with a TWT, the result is a relatively compact device with improved bandwidth; typical twystrons have bandwidth up to 15% of the design point. The device was developed by Albert La Rue and Rodney Rubert in the early 1960s and was quickly adopted by many radar designs in order to improve frequency agility and thereby ...

  7. NEXRAD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEXRAD

    NEXRAD or Nexrad (Next-Generation Radar) is a network of 159 high-resolution S-band Doppler weather radars operated by the National Weather Service (NWS), an agency of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) within the United States Department of Commerce, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) within the Department of Transportation, and the U.S. Air Force within the ...

  8. Airport surveillance radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airport_surveillance_radar

    It is a relocatable, solid-state, all-weather radar with dual-channel, frequency diversity, remote operator controls, and a dual beam tower mounted antenna. The radar provides controllers with range azimuth of aircraft within a 60 nautical mile radius. ASR 8 used a klystron as transmitters power amplifier stage with a load of 79 kV and 40A.

    The King City weather radar station ( ICAO site identifier CASKR ( CWKR prior to 2021)) is a weather radar located in King City, Ontario, Canada. It is operated by Environment Canada and is part of the Canadian weather radar network, for which it is the primary research station . The 16.45 hectare [1] site is listed at an elevation of 360 m ...
