pyrad.proc.process_phidp_kdp_Kalman(procstatus, dscfg, radar_list=None)[source]#

Computes specific differential phase and differential phase using the Kalman filter as proposed by Schneebeli et al. The data is assumed to be clutter free and continous

Parameters:
  • procstatus (int) – Processing status: 0 initializing, 1 processing volume, 2 post-processing

  • dscfg (dictionary of dictionaries) –

    data set configuration. Accepted Configuration Keywords:

    datatype : list of string. Dataset keyword
        The input data types
    parallel : boolean. Dataset keyword
        if set use parallel computing
    get_phidp : boolean. Datset keyword
        if set the PhiDP computed by integrating the resultant KDP is
        added to the radar field
    frequency : float. Dataset keyword
        the radar frequency [Hz]. If None that of the key
        frequency in attribute instrument_parameters of the radar
        object will be used. If the key or the attribute are not present
        it will be assumed that the radar is C band
    
  • radar_list (list of Radar objects) – Optional. list of radar objects

Returns:

  • new_dataset (dict) – dictionary containing the output

  • ind_rad (int) – radar index
