Abstract
The ambiguity function is derived for a pulse Doppler radar which uses fill pulses, a moving target indicator, a (MTI) filter, and DFT (discrete Fourier transform) processing. Some special properties of the pulse Doppler radar ambiguity function and its correspondence with the autoambiguity function of a pulse train as a special case are described. Examples illustrating the utility of the ambiguity function in describing the interaction of the radar with its clutter environment, including transient effects, are presented
