| Term | Doppler spectrum width, vertical |
|---|---|
| Definition | The Doppler spread or Doppler spectrum width is usually defined as the standard deviation of the Doppler velocity about its mean value, regarding the velocity as a continuously distributed random variable with a probability density function equal to the normalized Doppler spectrum. Direction of polarization here is vertical. |
