Abstract :
An approach for re-designing and adding Doppler capability to the STFC RAL 94 GHz Radar Cloud Profiler based on solid state components is described. The current design is shown, and the approach to the re-design is laid out. Following that, the anticipated phases to realisation of the re-design is explained. Results of the first phase will be presented at the symposium.
