The Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) installed on the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) core satellite was developed by JAXA and NICT. This paper describes mission objectives, technical performance, resource allocation, ground test results, orbital check out results and orbital operation status of the DPR. The DPR system PFT has completed in February 2012. GPM core spacecraft satellite...
Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission's core satellite has been collecting precipitation data from space for more than a year. This paper reviews the performance of precipitation retrieval algorithm and evaluates the rainfall rates estimated with the Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) onboard the GPM's core satellite. Differences between the rain estimates with TRMM's Precipitation...
