Abstract
A method and device of the pulse-compression radar or sonar type which makes it possible to determine the speed of a moving object is provided with a transmitter system, a receiver system, and a signal processing system. The transmitter system is capable of transmitting two associated pulses, one of which is modulated with an increasing variation law and the other of which is modulated with a decreasing variation law. The signal processing system includes two correlators, an adder, a subtractor, and a computer.
