Abstract:
A concise overview and comparative analysis of the existing circuit designs for optoelectronic precipitation gauges are presented. The main requirements are formulated and advantages are substantiated for the new dual-channel precipitation gauge based on the modern optoelectronic components. The main characteristics of the device are estimated. It is shown that in measurements of particle size and velocity the relative errors do not exceed 5%. The test bench prototype is made for finalizing the device design and data processing methods.
