Abstract
A signal processing system of reduced complexity over conventional banks of matched filters for each Doppler velocity of interest is responsive to a transmission which is in the form of a train of repeated Doppler invariant signals which are preferably phase continuous. The system utilizes a head end zero Doppler correlator and tapped delay line summer with summing nodes in cascade for each Doppler velocity of interest. The summer provides coherent sums indicative of the Doppler velocity of the target.
