The Pathfinder Advanced Radar Ice Sounder (PARIS) is an airborne radar sounder developed at the Applied Physics Laboratory at Johns Hopkins University. It uses the Delay-Doppler (DD) technique to collect radar soundings of ice sheet layering and bottom topography to determine ice sheet thickness. PARIS operates at the center frequency of 150 MHz and has a bandwidth of 6 MHz. It has a range resolution of 17 meters in ice.
