Abstract
The range bin width of a range gated moving target indicator (RG-MTI) is expanded to decrease the sensed range resolution to that which is compatible with the displayable range resolution, without limitation by the pulse width of the transmitted radar pulse. A commensurate expansion in the width of the return video signals is provided to prevent loss of target return signal detection due to 'straddling' of the return signal by the expanded range bin width.
