The basis of modern radar techniques is the direct use of radio-physical data on the power of backscattering. At the same time, the data volume received from the radar allows us to form new estimates and essentially specify classical ones. Significant steps have been made in this direction, using, for example, phase (Doppler) methods. The "modified Rayleigh model" used in radar meteorology to form a scattered field on rarefied medium particles is called the Kerr-Rice model. The main advantage of the Rayleigh model is its simplicity. But it itself contains a deep contradiction, consisting in its logical completion. Based on the statistics study of the first distribution in the rains of varying intensity the authors on a large statistical material have determined the fact of their not Rayleigh form and extreme stability of the latter in relation to natural changes of precipitation intensity. The first distribution is different from the theoretically expected one in the Kerr-Rice model, which makes it possible to use linear-logarithmic detection. It is concluded that the width and the mean of the spectrum of the same signal have the expected dynamics with respect to changes in precipitation intensity and dynamic processes in them. Tables with experimental data are presented. Two main distribution models are considered: lognormal and "logo-gamma-functional". It is concluded that, despite the absence of qualitative differences, the difference in the form of the distributions obtained with different equipment can be a natural consequence of significant discrepancies in the peak power and / or the width of the antenna pattern. The graphs of the first experimental distributions of envelope fluctuations on a linear and semi-logarithmic scale are presented.
