Abstract
Results of numerical simulation of active-passive sensing of uniform rain on the base of double frequency radar and radiometer are presented. Calculation of total received power and brightness temperature was performed for wavelengths 8 mm and 3.2 cm and for different rain intensity. It was shown that considered algorithm allows to reconstruct rain intensity with good accuracy.
