摘要：The Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) installed on the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) core satellite is being developed by JAXA and NICT. The GP M is a follow-on mission of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM). The objectives of the GPM mission are to observe global precipitation more frequently and accurately than TRMM. According to the different detectable dynamic ranges, The KaPR will detect snow and light rain, and the KuPR will detect heavy rain. In an effective dynamic range in both KuPR and KaPR, drop size distribution information and more accurate rainfall estimates will be provided by a dual-frequency algorithm. This paper describes the development status of the DPR
