The clutter performance of a radar using coherent pulse train signls depends upon the phase and amplitude weighting used on transmit and receive. This paper describes an iterative technique to determine better weightings. Each iteration improves the signal-to-interference ratio, where the interference is the sum of the mean square noise voltage and the mean square clutter voltage at the time of peak signal. Two examples are presented to illustrate the method and to demonstrate that in many cases the procedure will yield weightings that may be used in a system where the transmitter permits no amplitude weighting.
