Description

Differential reflectivity ZDR calibration method and device
Technical Field

Background
The dual polarization radar is a radar capable of transmitting and receiving both horizontally polarized waves and vertically polarized waves, and is widely applied to the field of meteorological detection; the differential reflectivity ZDR is used as an important observed quantity of the dual-polarization radar, plays an important role in the meteorological prediction process, and can be used for accurately calibrating the ZDR to directly influence the accuracy of the meteorological prediction.
However, since the horizontal channel and the vertical channel of the dual-polarization radar are generally not guaranteed to be completely consistent, and devices, installation, and the like in the two channels are different to some extent, there is a systematic deviation in the ZDR determined from the measured data, and the ZDR needs to be corrected. In addition, the ZDR offset may also change due to system operation, device aging, and maintenance updates, and therefore, the ZDR offset needs to be monitored to perform ZDR calibration based on the monitored ZDR offset.
In the current dual-polarization weather radar service system, a zenith calibration method is usually adopted to calibrate the ZDR; the zenith calibration method requires that a radar antenna vertically points to the sky, namely the radar antenna is required to reach an elevation angle of 90 degrees, 360-degree Plane Position Indicator (PPI) scanning is carried out, data are collected under the condition of laminar cloud with small rain intensity, then the data meeting the requirements are selected to determine the ZDR deviation, and the ZDR is calibrated according to the ZDR deviation.
When the zenith calibration method is adopted to calibrate the ZDR, the radar antenna is required to reach an elevation angle of 90 degrees, and the elevation angle of the radar antenna can only reach 19.5 degrees at most when the current normal service runs; that is, when the zenith calibration method is used for calibrating ZDR, the radar is required to stop the normal service operation and perform calibration under special configuration. In addition, because the ZDR can be calibrated only when the radar stops normal service, it is difficult to update the ZDR deviation in time by using the zenith calibration method, and accordingly, the ZDR is calibrated according to the inaccurate ZDR deviation.

In the prior art, the ZDR is usually calibrated by using a zenith calibration method. Because the zenith calibration method requires that the elevation angle of the radar antenna reaches 90 degrees, and the elevation angle of the radar antenna can only reach 19.5 degrees at most when normal services are operated, when the zenith calibration method is adopted to calibrate the ZDR, the normal services executed by the radar need to be stopped, and the ZDR is calibrated under special configuration; in addition, since the ZDR cannot be calibrated while the radar performs normal traffic, it is difficult to ensure that the ZDR deviation is updated in time, and accordingly, there may be a case where the ZDR cannot be accurately calibrated due to inaccuracy of the adopted ZDR deviation.
In view of the technical problems in the prior art, embodiments of the present application provide a ZDR calibration method, which can calibrate ZDR without affecting normal service executed by a radar, and can ensure that a ZDR deviation is updated in time.
The core technical idea of the ZDR calibration method provided by the embodiment of the present application is introduced as follows:
in the ZDR calibration method provided by the application, a radar scans based on a preset volume scanning mode and correspondingly receives complex I/Q signals of a horizontal channel and a vertical channel corresponding to each distance bin in each radial direction; then, correspondingly calculating ZDR related data corresponding to each distance library according to the received complex I/Q signals of the horizontal channel and the vertical channel corresponding to each distance library and the radial noise of the horizontal channel; then, judging whether the ZDR related data corresponding to each distance library meets the bragg scattering characteristics or not, and taking the distance library corresponding to the ZDR related data meeting the bragg scattering characteristics as a target distance library, thereby screening the target distance library from all the distance libraries to form a target distance library set; and further judging whether the target distance set meets the ZDR deviation evaluation standard, and if so, determining the ZDR deviation of the radar system according to the ZDR related data corresponding to the target distance library set.
The ZDR calibration method screens target distance libraries which can be used for determining the ZDR deviation from all the distance libraries based on the bragg scattering characteristics, and then determines the ZDR deviation of the radar system based on the ZDR related data corresponding to the target distance libraries; the bragg scattering characteristic specifically means that the average ZDR of a turbulent vortex region at the top of a convection boundary layer is 0 under clear sky conditions due to the random orientation of the turbulent vortex region. Compared with the existing zenith calibration method, the ZDR calibration method provided by the embodiment of the application has no special limitation on the scanning mode of the radar when determining the ZDR deviation, namely, has no special limitation on the elevation angle of the radar antenna, so that the radar can calibrate the ZDR while performing normal service, and further, the ZDR can be calibrated while performing normal service, and the timeliness of updating the ZDR deviation can be ensured.
The ZDR calibration method provided by the present application is specifically described below by way of an embodiment.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a ZDR calibration method provided in an embodiment of the present application.
As shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
step 101: and acquiring complex I/Q signals of a horizontal channel and a vertical channel corresponding to each radial distance library.
When the radar performs normal services, scanning is generally required to be performed based on a preset volume scan mode, and the common volume scan mode mainly includes three types: VCP11, VCP21, and VCP 31; wherein, the VCP11 volume sweep mode refers to the completion of 14 elevation PPI scanning at 5 minutes, the VCP21 volume sweep mode refers to the completion of 9 elevation PPI scanning at 6 minutes, and the VCP31 volume sweep mode refers to the completion of 5 elevation PPI scanning at 10 minutes. When the radar executes normal service, the radar can complete scanning by adopting any one of the body scanning modes.
The PPI scanning is a scanning mode in which 360-degree omni-directional scanning is performed at a certain elevation angle of a radar antenna with a radar station as a center, and a plan view of the azimuth and the distance of a target object is displayed in a polar coordinate manner.
It should be understood that, in practical applications, the radar may perform scanning based on the three body scan modes, and may perform scanning based on other body scan modes according to practical requirements, where no limitation is imposed on the body scan mode adopted by the radar.
Under a preset body scanning mode, the radar completes multiple 360-degree scanning at different elevation angles; correspondingly, when the radar receives the echo signals, the radar receives complex I/Q signals of a horizontal channel and complex I/Q signals of a vertical channel corresponding to each radial distance bank in different elevation angles.
Radial specifically refers to a linear direction along a diameter or radius, which may also be understood as a linear direction perpendicular to the axis; the range bin refers to a small range unit divided by distance along the radial direction in the radar echo signal processing process.
Step 102: and correspondingly calculating ZDR related data corresponding to each distance bank according to the complex I/Q signals of the horizontal channel and the vertical channel corresponding to each distance bank and the radial noise of the horizontal channel.
After the horizontal channel complex I/Q signals and the vertical channel complex I/Q signals corresponding to each distance bin in each radial direction are obtained, part of ZDR related data corresponding to each distance bin can be correspondingly calculated according to the horizontal channel complex I/Q signals and the vertical channel complex I/Q signals corresponding to each distance bin, and further, another part of ZDR related data corresponding to each distance bin can be correspondingly calculated according to the calculated part of ZDR related data and horizontal channel radial noise.
It should be noted that the ZDR-related data may specifically include: horizontal channel reflectivity ZhHorizontal channel radial velocity VhHorizontal channel velocity spectrum width WhSNR of horizontal channel and rho of zero lag cross correlation coefficienthv0And a differential reflectivity Zdr
Specifically, when calculating the ZDR related parameters corresponding to each distance bin, the ZDR related parameters corresponding to each distance bin may be calculated one by one according to the following manner:

SNR(k)=Zh(k)-Nh (12)
in this way, each ZDR-related data is calculated one by one in the above calculation manner.
Step 103: and screening out the target distance libraries according to the bragg scattering characteristics and the ZDR related data corresponding to each distance library to form a target database set.
After calculating the ZDR related data corresponding to each distance library, correspondingly judging whether the distance library meets the bragg scattering characteristics one by one according to the ZDR related data corresponding to each distance library, namely judging whether the distance library is in a turbulent vortex area at the top of a convection boundary layer, further screening the distance libraries meeting the bragg scattering characteristics from all the distance libraries to serve as target distance libraries, and forming a target distance library set by using the screened target distance libraries.
When the target distance library is specifically screened, the screening can be performed in the following manner:
firstly, screening out first distance libraries from all distance libraries according to the distance between each distance library and a radar and the elevation angle corresponding to each distance library to form a first distance library set; the distance between the first distance library and the radar is within a preset distance range, and the elevation angle corresponding to the first distance library is within a preset angle range.
It should be understood that the radar generally needs to scan according to a preset volume sweep mode when performing normal services, a volume sweep mode generally includes a plurality of elevation angles, accordingly, during the process of receiving echo signals, the received echo signals correspond to the elevation angles of the corresponding transmitted signals, and since the receiving unit of echo signals is a range bank, each range bank also corresponds to an elevation angle accordingly.
And selecting the distance library with the distance between the distance library and the radar within a preset distance range and the corresponding elevation angle within a preset angle range from all the distance libraries as a first distance library, and forming a first distance library set by using all the first distance libraries screened in the way, thereby reducing the influence of ground objects. That is, by means of the above-mentioned screening, the distance bank partially affected by the ground object is filtered out, and the region where the distance bank is located obviously does not belong to the turbulent vortex region at the top of the convection boundary layer.
It should be noted that the preset distance range may be specifically 10 to 80km, and the preset angle range may be specifically 2.5 ° to 4.5 °, and of course, the preset distance range and the preset angle range may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and the preset distance range and the preset angle range are not specifically limited herein.
Then, according to the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to each first distance libraryhAnd the horizontal channel signal-to-noise ratio SNR, screening out a second distance library from the first distance library set to form a second distance library set; the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to the second distance libraryhAnd the SNR of the horizontal channel corresponding to the second distance library is smaller than a second preset threshold.
Judging the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to each first distance library one by onehWhether the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the horizontal channel corresponding to each first distance library is smaller than a second preset threshold value or not, and if the SNR of the horizontal channel corresponding to each first distance library is smaller than the second preset threshold value, determining the reflectivity Z of the horizontal channel corresponding to the first distance libraryhIs less than a first preset threshold value, and the SNR of the corresponding horizontal channel is less than a second preset threshold valueSetting a threshold value, which indicates that the echo signal received on the first distance library is a weak echo signal, and correspondingly, taking the first distance library as a second distance library; therefore, each first distance library in the first distance library set is judged one by one, so that each second distance library meeting the two conditions is screened out from the first distance library set to form a second distance library set.
It should be noted that the first preset threshold may be 10dBZ, and the second preset threshold may be 15dB, that is, the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to the second distance libraryhLess than 10dBZ, and the signal-to-noise ratio SNR of the horizontal channel corresponding to the second distance library is less than 15 dB; of course, the first preset threshold and the second preset threshold may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and the first preset threshold and the second preset threshold are not specifically limited herein.
Furthermore, according to the zero lag cross correlation coefficient rho corresponding to each second distance bankhv0Screening a third distance library from the second distance library set to form a third distance library set; zero lag cross correlation coefficient rho corresponding to the third distance libraryhv0Greater than a third preset threshold.
Judging zero lag cross correlation coefficient rho corresponding to the second distance library one by onehv0Whether the value is larger than a third preset threshold value or not, if the value is larger than the third preset threshold value, the zero lag cross-correlation coefficient rho corresponding to the second distance libraryhv0If the second distance library is larger than the third preset threshold, the echo particles received at the second distance library are uniform in shape, and the second distance library is used as a third distance library; thereby, from the second distance library, the zero lag cross-correlation coefficient ρ is selectedhv0And forming a third distance library set by the third distance library which is larger than a third preset threshold.
It should be noted that the third preset threshold may be specifically 0.98, that is, the zero lag cross-correlation coefficient ρ corresponding to the third distance binhv0Is more than 0.98; of course, the third preset threshold may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and the third preset threshold is not specifically limited herein.
Finally, according to the horizontal channel corresponding to each third distance libraryRadial velocity VhAnd horizontal channel velocity spectrum width WhScreening a target distance library from the third distance library set to form a target distance library set; horizontal channel radial velocity V corresponding to target distance libraryhIs greater than a fourth preset threshold, and the corresponding horizontal channel velocity spectrum width WhGreater than a fifth preset threshold.
Judging the radial speed V of the horizontal channel corresponding to each third distance library one by onehWhether the absolute value of the first distance library is larger than a fourth preset threshold value or not, and judging the horizontal channel velocity spectrum width W corresponding to the third distance libraryhIf the radial speed is greater than the fifth preset threshold, if the radial speed is greater than the second preset threshold, the horizontal channel corresponding to the second distance bank has a radial speed VhIs greater than a fourth preset threshold, and the corresponding horizontal channel velocity spectrum width WhIf the distance is greater than the fifth preset threshold, the corresponding speed spectrum width of the third distance library is wider, and the radial speed of the third distance library is not close to zero, and the third distance library is used as a target distance library, so that the influence of weather signals with narrow spectrum width and radial speed close to zero on the determination of the ZDR deviation is reduced. Therefore, all the third distance libraries which simultaneously meet the two conditions are screened out from the third distance library set to serve as target distance libraries, and then all the target distance libraries are combined into a target distance library set.
It should be noted that the fourth preset threshold may be specifically 2m/s, and the fifth preset threshold may be specifically 0.5m/s, that is, the absolute value | V of the horizontal channel radial velocity corresponding to the target distance libraryhIf is greater than 2m/s, the horizontal channel velocity spectrum width W corresponding to the target distance libraryhMore than 0.5 m/s; of course, the fourth preset threshold and the fifth preset threshold may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and the fourth preset threshold and the fifth preset threshold are not specifically limited herein.
It should be understood that the above-mentioned screening sequence is only an example, and in practical application, the above-mentioned screening sequence may be arbitrarily changed according to actual requirements, that is, the screening may be performed according to the distance between the distance library and the radar and the elevation angle corresponding to the distance library, or according to the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to the distance libraryhAnd horizontal channel informationThe noise ratio SNR is screened, or the zero lag cross correlation coefficient rho corresponding to the distance library is firstly screenedhv0Screening can be carried out according to the radial speed V of the horizontal channel corresponding to the distance libraryhAnd horizontal channel velocity spectrum width WhScreening is performed without any restriction on the specific screening order.
Step 104: and judging whether the target distance library set meets the ZDR deviation evaluation standard.
And after the target distance library set is screened out, further judging whether the target distance library set meets the ZDR deviation evaluation standard, namely judging whether the screened target distance library set can be used for determining the ZDR deviation, and determining the ZDR deviation according to the ZDR related data corresponding to the screened target distance library set only under the condition that the screened target distance library set can be used for determining the ZDR deviation.
In specific implementation, the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to each target distance library in the target distance library set can be judged firstlyhWhether the proportion smaller than or equal to the sixth preset threshold value reaches the preset proportion or not.
That is, the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to each target range binhAccording to the sequence from small to large, determining the horizontal channel reflectivity ZhThe number of target distance bins which are less than or equal to a sixth preset threshold value is calculated, and then the horizontal channel reflectivity Z is calculatedhAnd if the proportion of the target distance library which is smaller than or equal to the sixth preset threshold value in all the target distance libraries reaches the preset proportion, the precipitation echo is filtered in the process of screening the target distance libraries.
It should be noted that the sixth preset threshold may be specifically-3 dB, and the preset ratio may be specifically 90%; of course, the sixth preset threshold and the preset ratio may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and the sixth preset threshold and the preset ratio are not specifically limited herein.
And then, judging whether the number of the target distance libraries in the target distance library set is greater than the preset distance library number.
That is, it is determined whether the number of all target distance bins in the target distance bin set exceeds the preset number of distance bins, and if so, it indicates that the target distance bin set screened in step 103 has statistical characteristics, and the ZDR deviation determined according to the ZDR related data corresponding to the target distance bin set has a certain reliability.
It should be noted that the number of the preset distance bins may be 10000 specifically, that is, the number of the target distance bins in the target distance bin set needs to be greater than 10000; of course, the number of the preset distance bins may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and no limitation is made on the number of the preset distance bins.
And finally, judging whether the quartile distance of the differential reflectivity corresponding to all the target distance libraries in the target distance library set is smaller than a seventh preset threshold value.
Specifically, the differential reflectivity Z corresponding to all target distance binsdrArranging the Z's thus arranged in order from small to largedrThe sequence is quartered and differential reflectivity Z at three division points is obtaineddr(ii) a Z isdrZ at the first segmentation point in the sequencedrI.e. in the 25 th% of ZdrA first quartile Q1, also known as the smaller quartile; z isdrZ at the second split point in the sequencedrI.e. Z at 50%drIs a second quartile Q2, also known as the median; z isdrZ at the third segmentation point in the sequencedrI.e. at 75% of ZdrA third quartile Q3, also known as the larger quartile; the difference between the third Quartile Q3 and the first Quartile Q1 is the interquartile Range (IQR). And then, judging whether the quartile range IQR of the differential reflectivity ZDR obtained by calculation is smaller than a seventh preset threshold, if so, indicating that the target distance library screened in the step 103 is the distance library with the biological clutter filtered.
It should be noted that the seventh preset threshold may be specifically 0.9, that is, the quartile distance IQR of the differential reflectivity corresponding to all the target distance bins is less than 0.9; of course, the seventh preset threshold may also be adaptively modified according to actual requirements, and the seventh preset threshold is not limited herein.
It should be understood that the above-mentioned determination sequence is only an example, and in practical applications, the above-mentioned determination sequence may be modified arbitrarily, that is, the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to each target range bin in the target range bin set may be determined firsthWhether the ratio smaller than or equal to the sixth preset threshold reaches the preset ratio or not can be judged, whether the number of the target distance bins in the target distance bin set reaches the preset distance bin number or not can be judged first, whether the quartile distance of the differential reflectivity corresponding to all the target distance bins in the target distance bin set is smaller than the seventh preset threshold or not can be judged first, and no limitation is made on the judgment sequence.
And if the target distance library set is determined to meet the three judgment conditions, the target distance library set is determined to meet the ZDR deviation evaluation standard. I.e. if the horizontal channel reflectivity Z corresponding to each range bin in the target range bin sethWhether the proportion smaller than or equal to the sixth preset threshold value reaches the preset proportion or not, the number of the target distance bins in the target distance bin set reaches the preset distance bin number, and the quartile distance of the differential reflectivity corresponding to all the target distance bins in the target distance bin set is smaller than the seventh preset threshold value, so that the target distance bin set can be determined to accord with the ZDR deviation evaluation standard; conversely, if the target distance library does not satisfy any one or more of the above conditions, it may be determined that the target distance library does not comply with the ZDR deviation evaluation criteria.
Step 105: and if so, determining a ZDR deviation according to the ZDR related data corresponding to the target distance library set, wherein the ZDR deviation is used for calibrating the actually measured ZDR.
If the target distance library set is determined to meet the ZDR deviation evaluation standard, the ZDR deviation of the system is further determined according to ZDR related data corresponding to all target distance libraries in the target distance library, and the actual measured ZDR is corrected according to the ZDR deviation thus determined, through step 104.
It should be noted that, through step 103 and step 104, if it is determined that ZDR-related data corresponding to the target distance library set conforms to the ZDR deviation evaluation standard, it is determined that the target distance libraries in the target distance library set are substantially all located in the turbulent vortex region at the top of the convection boundary layer; since the turbulent vortex region at the top of the convection boundary layer has random orientation, the ZDR mean value corresponding to this region is 0, and if the ZDR determined based on the ZDR-related data corresponding to each of the target distance bins is not 0, this ZDR value can be used as the ZDR deviation of the system accordingly.
During specific implementation, according to the difference reflectivity Z corresponding to each target distance library in the target distance library setdrDrawing a probability density distribution curve; further, the differential reflectance Z corresponding to each target range bin is determineddrAs the ZDR deviation.
That is, the difference reflectance Z corresponding to each target range bin is useddrPlotting the differential reflectivity ZdrAccording to the differential reflectivity ZdrDetermining the differential reflectivity ZdrThe mode ZDR _ mod of (a) is taken as the ZDR deviation on the system.
It should be understood that, in practical applications, the ZDR deviation may also be determined in other manners according to ZDR related data corresponding to each target distance library, and the manner of determining the ZDR deviation is not limited herein.
The method for calibrating the ZDR comprises the steps of determining a target distance library set capable of being used for calculating the ZDR deviation based on a bragg scattering characteristic, wherein the bragg scattering characteristic refers to that the average value of the ZDR of a region is 0 under a clear air condition due to the random orientation of turbulent eddies at the top of a convection boundary layer; compared with a zenith calibration method in the prior art, the ZDR calibration method provided by the application has no special limitation on the scanning mode of the radar when determining the ZDR deviation, and can calibrate the ZDR while the radar performs normal service, namely, when the ZDR calibration method provided by the application is used for calibrating the ZDR, the normal service executed by the radar does not need to be stopped, and the ZDR can be calibrated in real time in the process of performing normal service by the radar.
