Extracting meteorological rain cell severity, microburst wind shear, and wake vortex turbulence directly from cellular airborne signals.
By analyzing horizontal and vertical polarization phase shifts in transmitted communication bursts, the radar maps rainfall rate, hail probability, and icing risk along the flight path.
Reflections from micro-density atmospheric variations reveal sudden refractive index gradients, alerting pilots to dangerous clear-air turbulence 10 to 15 miles before entry.
