无线电声学探测系统（RASS）技术，用于测量温度廓线具有良好的时间和高度分辨率已被应用于风廓线雷达在三个频率（49.8，404.37和915兆赫）工作。这三个系统的性能进行了讨论的高度覆盖的温度测量和物理过程限制的覆盖范围。较低的频率可以探测更高的高度，但49.8MHz风廓线仪的最小范围约为2.1公里，限制了它们在某些研究中的用途。这些初步的结果表明，使用RASS与风廓线仪有希望业务气象学。
The Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS) technique for measuring temperature profiles with good time and height resolution has been applied using wind profiling radars operating at three frequencies (49.8, 404.37 and 915MHz). The performance of the three systems is discussed in terms of the altitude coverage of the temperature measurements and physical processes limiting the coverage. The lower frequencies can probe greater altitudes, but the 49.8MHz wind profilers have a minimum range of about 2.1 km limiting their usefulness for some studies. These preliminary results indicate that the use of RASS in concert with wind profilers has promise for operational meteorology.
