• RS92 as reference radiosonde.
• Multiple radiosondes attached on one balloon.

• Error separating method
Principle:
(1) If there are enough sample data, the data distribution will
be normalization.
(2) Two radiosondes with the same sensors between which
the statistical systematic errors (SE) should be near zero.
And the STD of each them should be approximately equal.

Analytical Methods of Dynamic
Measurement Error
1)Taking RS92 as a standard and GTS1, GTS1-2 as tests, the STD of the
tests is given by formula (1):
(1)
2) As the principle, the separated STD of RS92 is given by formula (2):
sRS 92 
ssynthesis ( RS 92)
(2)
2
So the individual STD of RS92, GTS1 and GTS1-2 can be achieved.

5. Conclusion
• The temperature sensor of radiosonde used
in China has been changed from the rodshaped thermistor to bead thermistor
gradually, the measurement accuracy has
been improved significantly, and the
radiation error has also been effectively
corrected.
• At present, the GTS1-2 radiosonde has
better performance than GTS1, but the
humidity measurement still exist a certain
gap compared with RS92.

• Through software algorithm, bias for
pressure measurement can be corrected
largely.
• Current operational wind calculation method
has relative large wind pulse affection, and
some real results reflecting the wind speed
and direction have also been smoothed. The
moving average vector method can better
eliminate the pulsation effect. If using the 1
minute moving average window to calculate
the upper-air wind per second, it can be
consistent with GPS wind measurement.
