Abstract

In this work we use real data provided by terminal pulse Doppler radar (WSR-88D) echoes to estimate the windshear hazards disastrous for the aircraft takeoffs and landings. Briefly two different methods are used to estimate the received Doppler moments. The second central moment which is the variance of the wind speed is called width or shear. A first method is in the time domain and also called pulse-pair, while the second is in the frequency domain. The main aim of this study is a performances comparison of results provided by the two mentioned methods and assumes that the power spectrums of the received signals are approached with the Gaussian shape.
