A Study of Pulse-Doppler Radar Pulse Repetition Frequency
Measurements of both long ranges and high velocities pose a contradiction to a pulse-Doppler radar, driving the desired Pulse Repetition Frequency (PRF) in different directions. Often, making one of the measurements unambiguous will make the other ambiguous. The PRF can be adjusted to trade ambiguities in range and velocity, subject to well-defined limits. Various regions of the radar’s operating characteristics in range-velocity space have come to be termed Low-PRF, Medium-PRF, and High-PRF.
