PURPOSE: 
 
The TWT Amplifier will be used as a source of high power/high 
frequency pulsed signal that will be transmitted.  Echos 
received can be analyzed by the receiver for the content of 
precipitation and moisture in the clusters of clouds.  We 
shall be using a Klystron of common use to feed the signal. 
Also, a portion of the generated signal shall be given to the 
receiver module deriving the noise figure and cancellation of 
multiple reflections.  The RADAR System, once developed, can 
replace existing expensive Doppler weather RADARs that are in 
use and will become a cheaper option in coastal regions where 
cyclones are rampant.
