radarx.fundamentals.variables.circular_depolarization_ratio(z_parallel, z_orthogonal)[source]#

Compute circular depolarization ratio CDR [dB].

Parameters:

  • z_parallel (float or array-like) – Power or reflectivity in the parallel channel [mm^6/m^3]

  • z_orthogonal (float or array-like) – Power or reflectivity in the orthogonal channel [mm^6/m^3]

Returns:

float or array-like – CDR in dB
