The problem of aliasing in precipitation Doppler spectrum with uniform pulse repetition time is addressed. This work focuses on de-aliasing such Doppler spectra using non-uniform sampling techniques, namely, Log-periodic and Periodic non-uniform sampling. These techniques reduce the ambiguous main lobes caused by aliasing (by going beyond the observable frequency limit) into ambiguous sidelobes that are distinguishable from the original spectra. The SNR is further enhanced by using an Iterative Adaptive Approach (IAA) algorithm. The performance of Doppler moment estimation is presented after applying the IAA algorithm on simulated precipitation-like radar echoes. However, the ambiguous sidelobe suppression is highly dependent on the spectral width of the Doppler spectra.
