The First Tornado Signature Ever Observed With
C-Band Polarimetric Radar
|
| |
Enterprise, AL, March 1, 2007 - The deadliest tornado was also the first. A tornado warning
was issued at 1847 UTC (12:47 PM CST) for Coffee County including the City of Enterprise,
AL. A tornado rated EF4 with wind speeds 166–200 mph touched down in
Enterprise, AL, at around 1905 UTC (1:05 PM CST).

Technical University of Crete (TUC) & EEC A Winning Team!
|
| |
Enterprise Electronics Corporation (EEC®) and Technical University of Crete (TUC) have formed a strategic alliance to advance the general body of meteorological knowledge through discovery and creation of new technologies. The alliance takes full advantage of complementary strengths in both theoretical and practical knowledge bases and will pursue new knowledge to improve Doppler weather radar and associated systems. The initial cooperative efforts will concentrate on field testing and validation of C-Band weather radar data obtained from the U.S. Navy radar at Souda Bay, Crete (manufactured by EEC ) and assess the effect of any new developments, upgrades to the signal processing, and the available weather detection algorithms.

Another EEC Technology Breakthrough |
| |
Enterprise Electronics Corporation, the world’s leader in Doppler radar technology, has developed a breakthrough frequency agile receiver / processor upgrade that will provide up to 16 times clutter rejection for our worldwide users of current EEC radar systems.
This newly innovated patented application was developed and tested by Enterprise Electronics Corporation. The new technology will provide previously unachievable performance increases in newer or older model radar systems. Traditionally, radar sites have been plagued with clutter issues and the dreaded “cone of silence”. But now, those problems can be eliminated and data can be kept clear and precise for peak performance. This new proprietary processing algorithm offers unmatched performance with any EEC signal processor. Whether your EEC system has the older RVP-5, the newer ESP-7 or our latest digital receiver, the EDRP-9, you will see immediate clutter rejection improvement of up to 16 times normal clutter filtering in any EEC magnetron-based radar system.

New Simultaneous Dual Polarization Patent |
| |
ENTERPRISE, Alabama – July 25, 2006 – Enterprise Electronics Corporation (“EEC”) announced today the award of a third patent in its SIDPOL™ series of simultaneous dual polarization radars. Since Enterprise Electronics Corporation introduced the first commercial Doppler weather radar in 1981, it has continued to lead the market place with innovative products. The SIDPOL™ series of radars advances the demanding standards for weather radars by providing the most economical approach to weather surveillance radar systems while capturing the most accurate and detailed reflection data currently available in the marketplace.
U.S. Patent No. 7,049,997 was issued on May 23, 2006 entitled “Simultaneous Dual Polarization Radar System” and is the third in a series of patents covering the core technological advancements in the SIDPOL™ line. This latest patent covers several apparatuses and methods for radar systems that allow for transmission and reception in both horizontal and vertical signal modes simultaneously while repositioning critical receiver components above the elevation rotary coupler normally found in radar pedestals. The new design eliminates the current problems experienced in dual polarization radar systems of long dwell times and velocity range reductions, and also eliminates the relatively expensive and unreliable polarization switch found in many radar systems.
EEC currently has other U.S. patents pending on its SIDPOL™ technology and has numerous pending patents in most of the industrialized nations of the world. The recently issued patent strengthens EEC’s position as a provider of advanced weather radar systems and adds to EEC’s expanding patent portfolio.

Simultaneous Dual Polarization Installation |
| |
We are pleased to announce the first permanent installation
of our new C-Band Simultaneous Dual Polarization Radar
system (SidPol™) at the EEC factory. SidPol™ was developed
by Enterprise Electronics Corporation engineers and
recently patented under U.S. Patent numbers 6,859,163
and 6,803,875.
Current dual polarization weather radar systems
alternate polarization mode on a pulse-by-pulse
basis through the use of high power, high-speed
dual polarization switches. The transition from
alternating dual polarization to simultaneous dual
polarization eliminates the current issues with
long dwell times and velocity range reduction.
In addition, the expensive and difficult to maintain
high power polarization switch is eliminated.
The benefits of SidPol™ systems are substantial.
Much more information is provided to the data processing
system, permitting determination of the entire
scattering matrix, correction for partial beam
blockage via differential phase techniques, improved
rainfall estimates, improved clutter rejection
and improved hydrometeor classification.
Enterprise Electronics Corporation is always on
the cutting edge of new technology and is moving
forward in the development of new products that
will enhance the weather forecasting industry and
increase your market share.
We would like to discuss the advantages of this
new product and demonstrate the cost effective
capabilities. Please contact me at the following
address, telephone number, and/or email address
so we may establish a convenient time to visit
you. We’re excited about SidPol™ and we’re anxious
to get level of interest inputs from the broadcast
market.
