Abstract Keystone transform can be employed to eliminate the effects of linear range migration through resolution cells of moving targets during the coherent integration time of Pulse Doppler (PD) radar. However, with Doppler ambiguity, Half-Blind-Velocity Effect (HBVE) occurs when the conventional implementation method of keystone transform is applied. The causes of HBVE are analyzed, and the existing elimination methods of HBVE are introduced. To decrease the computation cost, a method to suppress HBVE is firstly presented, on the basis of which a new method of HBVE elimination is put forward. The proposed method can remove the linear range migration of moving targets with all possible velocities within a desired ambiguous Doppler interval, and its computation cost is reduced by almost 50% compared to the existing one. Theoretical analysis and simulation results validate the effectiveness of the presented methods.
