nyquist_velocity: Nyquist velocity for a given pulse repetition frequency (PRF)
Description
Calculates the Nyquist velocity given a radar's pulse repetition frequency (PRF)
and wavelength. When specifying two PRFs, the extended Nyquist
velocity is given for a radar using the dual-PRF technique.
Usage
nyquist_velocity(wavelength, prf1, prf2)
Value
Nyquist velocity in m/s.
Arguments
wavelength
radar wavelength in cm
prf1
radar pulse repetition frequency in Hz
prf2
alternate radar pulse repetition frequency in Hz (for a radar operating in dual-PRF mode)
