radio_signal_roundtrip_travel_time_in_air
The quantity with standard name radio_signal_roundtrip_travel_time_in_air is the time taken for an electromagnetic signal to propagate from an emitting instrument such as a radar or lidar to a reflecting volume and back again. The signal returned to the instrument is the sum of all scattering from a given volume of air regardless of mechanism (examples are scattering by aerosols, hydrometeors and refractive index irregularities, or whatever else the instrument detects).
