Abstract :
The paper presents a method by which the zeros of the polynomial representing a Huffman (impulse-equivalent) pulse sequence can be chosen so as to exert a degree of control on the form of the energy distribution of the signal in the time-frequency plane. This makes it possible to design Huffman pulse sequences which are suitable for use as radar or sonar signals in situations where significant target velocity occurs.
