Abstract

For use with a high gain receiver circuit which receives echo pulses of frequencies within a predetermined bandwidth and at times within interpulse periods of a predetermined pulse repetition rate and amplifies the echo pulses for measurement purposes, the receiver circuit susceptible to electrical noise within the frequency bandwidth of the received echo pulses to create false echo pulses, a method of eliminating substantially the false echo pulses without affecting substantially the amplified echo pulses by accepting only echo pulses which occur synchronously among interpulse periods. The pulse repetition rate may be varied to eliminate false echo pulses that are synchronous to the interpulse periods.
