4.10. However, in practice this is not possible for two reasons. First, in the
presence of noise we lack knowledge of the peak correlation value; and sec-
ond, targets in general will have different amplitudes.
Now consider the case of a coherent pulse train described in Fig. 4.7. For a
pulse train, range accuracy is still determined by the pulsewidth, in the same
manner as in the case of a single pulse, while Doppler accuracy is determined
by the train length. Thus, time and frequency measurements can be made inde-
pendently of each other. However, additional peaks appear in the ambiguity
diagram which may cause range and Doppler uncertainties (see Fig. 4.11).
