| Abstract: | The MU radar of RISH (Research Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere, Kyoto University), which is a MST radar (46.5 MHz,
1 MW peak power), has been successfully applied to meteor studies by using its very high versatility. The system has recently
renewed with 25 channel digital receivers which significantly improved the sensitivity and precision of interferometer used
in meteor observation. The transmission is now synchronized to GPS signals, and two external receiving sites with a ranging
capability has additionally been operated in order to determine the trajectories and speeds of meteoroids. |
