Abstract
Insight into the properties of maximum likelihood Doppler frequency sh ift estimators, which function as spectral domain matched filters, is often obtained more readily from examination of their spectral correla ting functions,and lag windows than from simulated performance data. T hese functions are compared and contrasted with reference to lidar app lications for the three principal estimators.
