SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CALCULATING RAINFALL USING A X-BAND RADAR

摘要

PURPOSE: A system for calculating accumulated rainfall based on x-band radar for vessels and a method for calculating the same are provided to prevent the generation of damages due to localized heavy rain. CONSTITUTION: A system for calculating accumulated rainfall includes an x-band radar(100) and an accumulated rainfall calculating unit(200). The x-band radar cans a pre-set point and generates analog signals. The accumulated rainfall calculating unit converts analog signals to digital signals and applies the digital signals to a pre-set relational expression to obtain rainfall. The accumulated rainfall calculating unit includes an x-band radar signal collecting part, an analog to digital converting part, a binary data generating part, a rainfall calculating part, and a central processing part. The x-band radar signal collecting part collects the analog signals by a pre-set interval. The binary data generating part generates binary data. The rainfall calculating part calculates rainfall based on the digital signals. The central processing part generates rainfall binary data or rainfall image data.
