radarx.fundamentals.geometry.sample_volume_gaussian(range_m, beamwidth_h_deg, beamwidth_v_deg, pulse_length_m)[source]#

Compute radar sample volume assuming Gaussian beam shape.

Parameters:

  • range_m (float or array-like) – Distance to sample volume [m]

  • beamwidth_h_deg (float) – Horizontal beamwidth [degrees]

  • beamwidth_v_deg (float) – Vertical beamwidth [degrees]

  • pulse_length_m (float) – Pulse length [m]

Returns:

float or array-like – Sample volume [m³]
