Outline CASA Puerto Rico Network Site Survey Radar Design - Block Diagram Using a Voltage Controlled Oscillator - Block Diagram Using a Direct Digital Synthesis Source - Calibration Loop - Magnetron Frequency Drift - Radar Budget

CASA CASA - Collaborative Adaptive Sensing of the Atmosphere Sample the lower atmosphere to precisely predict extreme weather events To observe, anticipate, and act quickly before damage occurs Distributed, collaborative and adaptive Systems

Puerto Rico Network Site Survey

Puerto Rico Network Site Survey

Puerto Rico Network Site Survey

Network Design Drawbacks Site accessibility High antenna tilt angles to get an obstacle-free view Higher mountains’ height is over 1 Km (maximum desirable height of study)

Radar Design

VCO vs. DDS Voltage Controlled Oscillator - Controlled by a variable voltage source - Need of a digital to analog converter Direct Digital Synthesis - Reprogrammable to each center frequency - Digital input

Internal Calibration Conducts the transmitted pulse to the receiver in order to calibrate the receiver and to measure the transmitted phase. Continuous monitoring of transmit power and receiver gain Worst error produced when the leakage signal is out of phase with the calibration loop signal
