Abstract :
The principles of medium PRF (pulse-repetition-frequency) radar and the specific requirements of a radar system place restrictions on the choice of these PRFs. The author documents typical constraints placed on a pulse-Doppler search-mode PRF set. He sets forth an efficient approach for selecting a near-optimum set. Finally, as an example, a PRF set is documented that was selected using the described method
