    Using troposcatter reduced the number of stations from 50 microwave relays scattered through the wilderness to only 10, all located at the radar stations. In spite of their higher unit costs, the new network cost half as much to build as a relay system.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_Charvat

    Charvat is best known for his through-wall radar imaging system [1] [2] and his project-based MIT short-course on radar, where each student builds their own radar system. [3] [4] This radar course has been adopted by numerous other universities and institutions. Charvat is also well known in the hacker and maker community for developing radar ...

  4. Semi-Automatic Ground Environment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-Automatic_Ground...

    The environment allowed radar station personnel to monitor the radar data and systems' status (e.g., Arctic Tower radome pressure) and to use the range height equipment to process height requests from Direction Center (DC) personnel. DCs received the Long Range Radar Input from the sector's radar stations, and DC personnel monitored the radar ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Yukon_Long_Range...

    The station was known to be the coldest radar station in Alaska, with temperatures sinking as low as -70 degrees Fahrenheit during the winter. Due to the extreme temperatures, most of the site's operations were housed indoors, in a large composite structure consisting of a power/heating plant, water and fuel storage tanks, gymnasium and other ...

  6. Radome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radome

    A foldback circuit can act to prevent this; however, one drawback of its use is that it causes the station's output power to drop dramatically, reducing its range. A radome avoids that by covering the antenna's exposed parts with a sturdy, weatherproof material, typically fiberglass, keeping debris or ice away from the antenna, thus preventing ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stevenson_screen

    It forms part of a standard weather station and holds instruments that may include thermometers (ordinary, maximum/minimum), a hygrometer, a psychrometer, a dewcell, a barometer, and a thermograph. Stevenson screens may also be known as a cotton region shelter, an instrument shelter, a thermometer shelter, a thermoscreen, or a thermometer screen.

  9. Meteorological instrumentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteorological_instrumentation

    A weather station is a facility with instruments and equipment to make observations of atmospheric conditions in order to provide information to make weather forecasts and to study the weather and climate. The measurements taken include temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and precipitation amounts.
