description Technological advancement in battlefield and surveillance applications switch the radar investigators to put more effort into it, numerous theories and models have been proposed to improve the process of target detection in Doppler tolerant radar. However, still, more effort is needed towards the minimization of the noise below the radar threshold limit to accurately detect the target. In this paper, a digital coding technique is being discussed to mitigate the noise and to create clear windows for desired target detection. Moreover, multi-criteria of digital code combinations are developed using discrete mathematics and all designed codes have been tested to investigate various target detection properties such as the auto-correlation, cross-correlation properties, and ambiguity function using mat-lab to optimize and enhance the static and moving target in presence of the Doppler in a multi-target environment.
