Abstract :
The Doppler frequency shift, and spectral spread, of the radar scattering return from turbulent underdense ionized wakes are explicitly related here to the wake mean velocity, and to the wake turbulent velocity fluctuations and mean velocity gradients, respectively, via spectral moments of the matched-filter receiver response.
