Abstract After a short review of the history of the mini-SODAR, the differences between conventinal SODAR and mini-SODARs are discussed. The background for the interpretation of the turbulent structure parameters are given. In view of existing mini-SODAR systems, some design criteria for portable systems are presented. The limitations in minimum range, vertical resolutions and velocity resolution are discussed. Results from an Arctic boundary-layer experiment, where three monostatic systems are used on a small scale, show the potential of its application. In view of other applications, future developments are presented.
