Abstract:
In accordance with the characteristics of several types of weather radar images used in the aeronautical meteorology support, a suitable scheme for radar image compression software is presented on the basis of the bi-orthogonal wavelet transformation, embedded zero tree coding and adaptive arithmetic coding technologies. Tests indicate that this scheme is one of the effective ways to solve the problems of storage and long-distance transmission of weather radar echo images.
