在本文中，我们简要概述了用于冰雪测量的雷达系统的最新技术状况。重点介绍了堪萨斯大学开发的用于在14 MHz至38 GHz频率范围内进行多波段数据获取的仪器，该仪器安装在有人驾驶和无人驾驶飞机上。利用这些系统收集的信息可用于估算诸如冰层厚度、冰面和基岩地形、海冰上的积雪厚度以及年积雪量等参数。我们总结了近期的实地项目（包括在智利蓬塔阿雷纳斯开展的行动），展示了样本结果，并讨论了与智利机构近期的合作情况。
In this paper, we present a brief overview of the state of the art in radar systems for ice and snow measurements. Emphasis is given to the instrumentation developed at the University of Kansas for multi-band data retrieval at frequencies ranging from 14 MHz to 38 GHz, which is operated onboard manned and unmanned aircraft. The information collected with these systems is used to estimate parameters such as ice thickness, ice surface and bedrock topography, snow cover thickness on sea ice, and annual snow accumulation. We give a summary of recent field programs (including operations out of Punta Arenas, Chile), present sample results, and discuss recent collaborations with Chilean institutions.
