pyart.retrieve.compute_spectral_differential_phase(spectra, use_rhohv=False, srhohv_field=None, signal_h_field=None, signal_v_field=None)[source]#

Computes the spectral differential reflectivity from the complex spectras in ADU or sRhoHV

Parameters:

  • spectra (Radar spectra object) – Object containing the required fields

  • use_rhohv (Bool) – If true sRhoHV is going to be used to compute the differential phase. Otherwise the complex signals are used

  • signal_h_field, signal_v_field (str) – Name of the fields in radar which contains the signal. None will use the default field name in the Py-ART configuration file.

Returns:

sPhiDP_dict (field dictionary) – Field dictionary containing the spectral differential phase
