Abstract :
The periodic ambiguity function (PAF) is a tool for analyzing the performance of a radar system utilizing a periodically modulated CW signal and a receiver matched to one or several periods thereof. Alternative definitions for the PAF are given and the properties of the PAF are elaborated The properties shown include periodicity, symmetry with respect to the origin and the volume limitation property
