ABSTRACT:
A spectral moment estimator includes a first processor which processes signals representative of the magnitudes of complex autocorrelation functions of a signal at a plurality lags and provides Doppler spectral width representative signals and the autocorrelation function at zero lag independent of noise. A second processor, processes the complex autocorrelation representative signals, the complex autocorrelation functions phase angles representative signals, and the Doppler spectral width representative signals to provide the mean Doppler frequency of the the signal. The autocorrelation function phase angles are disambiguated and the unambiguous phase angles are least mean square error fitted to a third order odd polynomial, the linear term of which is the mean Doppler frequency of the signal.
