Adequate suppression of range sidelobes in chirp pulse-compression radar system for spaceborne rain-mapping application demonstrated in operation of aircraft version of system. Radar system operates at center frequency of 13.8 GHz, developed for operation aboard NASA DC-8 aircraft to measure vertical rainfall-rate profiles and rain-cell dimensions. Sidelobes suppressed by at least 55 dB. Technique applied to other frequencies, therefore, useful in other radar systems in which low sidelobes at mid to far range needed.
