| Abstract | Implementation of the AP Clutter Mitigation Scheme is underway within the WSR-88D system as part of the Open Radar Product Generator (ORPG; Saffle et al. 2001). Once fully implemented, this scheme will improve the radar base data quality by identification and removal of ground clutter produced under anomalous propagation (AP) conditions. The current WSR88D quality control system removes ground clutter that is present during normal propagation conditions by application of clutter bypass maps. AP ground clutter requires manual application of additional clutter filters. The AP Clutter Mitigation Scheme is working toward full automation of ground clutter filter specification and control. The first step in this implementation was achieved when the AP Clutter Detection Algorithm (APDA) was deployed during Build 2 of the ORPG in September 2002. Output from the APDA is available for perusal on the ORPG Clutter Filter Control panel and is expressed in terms of “clutter likelihood values” between 0-100, with 100 meaning that clutter is very likely present. |
