Multi-frequency radar remote sensing techniques are
not widely used because few of such radars are
available to the science community. This problem
initiated the development of an Advanced Multi
Frequency Radar (AMFR) at the University of
Massachusetts Microwave Remote Sensing Laboratory.
AMFR is mobile radar that consists of three
polarimetric Doppler subsystems operating at Ku-
band, Ka-band and W-band. This combination of
frequency bands allows a measurement of a wide range
of atmospheric targets ranging from weakly
reflecting clouds to strong precipitation. The
antenna beamwidths at each frequency were
intentionally matched, ensuring consistent sampling
volume. It is expected that AMFR will play an
important role in developing algorithms and
validating measurements for an upcoming generation
of space-borne radars. The frequency bands selected
for AMFR match those of several sensors that have
been deployed or are under development, such as the
Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agencies Tropical
Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite radar,
the NASA-JPL CloudSat radar and the Global
Precipitation Mission (GPM) satellite radars.
