Short summary
The discrimination between meteorological and non-meteorological echoes is necessary to obtain better meteorological application performance. However, the widely used algorithms have high expectations for polarimetric data, which have similar characteristics between meteorological and non-meteorological echoes in the weak-signal regions. Therefore, an improved fuzzy logic method is proposed in this paper to improve the classification performance in weak-signal regions.
