China's current mainstream business weather radar is

As of June 2023, the mainstream operational weather radar is Doppler weather radar.

Official website, the National Meteorological Science Data Center, shows that radar, as a big country with accurate monitoring, accurate forecasting and fine service, plays an important role in improving the monitoring ability of severe convective weather and building the first line of defense for meteorological disaster prevention and mitigation. The weather radar in 2023 is generally Doppler weather radar, which can detect the echo intensity and radial velocity of meteorological targets through Doppler effect.

With the development of weather radar technology, dual polarization detection technology and phased array detection technology are gradually popularized and applied. Among them, the active phased array weather radar with dual polarization detection function has high temporal and spatial resolution and particle shape detection ability, which will be an important development direction of future weather radar.
