Abstract :
The use of wind turbines to generate electricity has become a major problem in meteorological radars. Due to the low frequency resolution that these radars show, the most representative wind turbine radar signature characteristics can´t be observed in operational exploration modes by using the classical Fourier spectral estimation. In this paper, we propose super-resolution techniques to improve Fourier´s Doppler resolution and provide experimental results.
