Description:This letter presents initial weather measurements with a cylindrical polarimetric phased array radar (CPPAR) demonstrator developed at The University of Oklahoma. The overall system specifications, waveform design, beam pattern measurement, and beam-to-beam calibration of the CPPAR demonstrator are presented. The weather observations of convective precipitation are provided, employing a single-beam mechanical scan and commutating beam electronic scan. Measurement results from these two scan modes are compared, and the error statistics are derived and discussed. A new feature of the CPPAR commutating beam electronic scan in clutter detection is observed and explained.
