HF Radar Validation and Accuracy Analysis using Baseline Comparison Approach in the Sunda Strait

Data from a pair of phased array WERA HF radars in Indonesia are validated using a baseline comparison approach. The comparison is done with and without using the quality control layer of the WERA systems. The results show an extremely good agreement indicating that the data provided by the radars are valid and are used to assess the accuracy of the systems. Compared to similar works with other type of HF radar systems, the statistical metrics reported here are significantly better.
