1. A method for measuring a parameter of a target, the method comprising:
- transmitting at least one coherent burst signal towards a target;
receiving at least one of a return signal sent in response to a detection of the transmitted signal at the target and at least a portion of the transmitted signal back from the target; and
determining a parameter of a target based on the received signal and using a discrete Fourier transform.

Abstract
A system and method for measuring a parameter of a target in accordance with embodiments of the present invention includes transmitting at least one signal towards a target and receiving at least a portion of the transmitted signal back from the target. The measured parameter is one of distance velocity, or reflectivity. The transmitted signal is of the coherent burst waveform, and upon reception is processed with equivalent time sampling, AGC with minimal, if any, error, and a discrete Fourier transform.
