Abstract：A new method based on cyclic-correlation character for estimating the Doppler and multipath time delay of the wideband echoes for LFM pulse radar by only one pulse signal is presented. First, the Doppler is estimated by energy cumulation of multipath component based on cyclic-correlation transform. Then, an order-reduced signal is reconstructed combining the Doppler with the prior knowledge of the transmitted signal, and the echoes signal is converted to many single-frequency signals. Finally, the multipath time delay is obtained by zero-frequency section cyclic-spectrum where the overlapping echoes can be separated and the resolution is doubled. The method is adapted for low SNR noise, can restrain the affection of the cross-items, and has a high time-delay estimation resolution. Some computer simulations are given in this paper and the results show that the new method is valid.
