Abstract :
The CFL-20 system is made of two wind profiling radars. One is a UHF radar working in the boundary layer and the other is a VHF radar working in the troposphere. We use the UHF radar to measure the velocities and directions of winds at heights from 100 to 3500 m and use the VHF radar to measure winds at heights from 2500 to 20000 m. The system´s main capability is described
