Abstract
A fuzzy logic algorithm has been developed for the purpose of segregating precipitating from nonprecipitating echoes using polarimetric radar observations at C band. Adequate polarimetric descriptions for each type of scatterer are required for the algorithm to be effective. An observations-based approach is presented in this study to derive membership functions and objectively weight them so that they apply directly to conditions experienced at the radar site and to the radar wavelength. Three case studies are examined and show that the algorithm successfully removes nonprecipitating echoes from rainfall accumulation maps.
