Abstract

In this paper the possibilities of application for double frequency remote sensing of solid aerosols are considered in the case of polydisperse medium. Use of double frequency sounding permits to evaluate effective aerosols parameters with satisfactory accuracy for "narrow" Δr ≤ 0.3 and "wide" Δr ≥ 4 distribution law. The experiments with calibrated sand particles with "narrow" distribution law (as aerosols model) confirm the possibility of satisfactory evaluation of aerosol parameters.
