Opportunistic sensing through Satellite Microwave Links (SMLs) offers a cost-effective and scalable solution for real-time rainfall monitoring. In this study, Smart Rainfall System (SRS) data from three links were used to classify wet/dry periods using two machine learning models: Random Forest (RF) and a Fully Connected (FC) neural network. Classification was conducted at four time windows (15, 30, 60, and 120 min) to assess the influence of window size on feature extraction and model performance. Results show that both models effectively detect rainfall, with shorter windows enhancing classification accuracy.

摘要

Opportunistic sensing through Satellite Microwave Links (SMLs) offers a cost-effective and scalable solution for real-time rainfall monitoring. In this study, Smart Rainfall System (SRS) data from three links were used to classify wet/dry periods using two machine learning models: Random Forest (RF) and a Fully Connected (FC) neural network. Classification was conducted at four time windows (15, 30, 60, and 120 min) to assess the influence of window size on feature extraction and model performance. Results show that both models effectively detect rainfall, with shorter windows enhancing classification accuracy.
