The main function is bb_weighting_Z.m. The other two files, readme2.m and script_plot_angular_w.m explain how to run the main function for the two commercial backscattering sensors (HydroScat-6 and ECO-BB) and plot the result. The calculated angular weighting function WNs and the corresponding weight WTs for HydroScat-6 and ECO-BB are here . The visualization for HydroScat-6 and ECO-BB.
