Abstract

The challenge of polarimetric coupling in phased array weather radars is explained, along with the resulting requirements. For the first time, state-of-the-art mitigation techniques on the system, hardware and software level are discussed together along with their achievements and shortcomings. An outlook is made toward future developments and applications, including integrated weather sensing and communications.
