A method for removing Doppler ambiguity in a ladar system. The time of each pulse of a sequence of transmitted pulses is offset from that of a uniform sequence of pulses. Each received pulse is represented by a complex number corresponding to its amplitude and phase, and each complex number of the resulting array of complex numbers is multiplied by a complex correction factor having a phase proportional to (i) the time offset of the corresponding pulse, and to (ii) a test frequency of an array of test frequencies, to form a second array of complex numbers. A Fourier transform of the second array is taken, and the value at the test frequency is copied into a corrected spectrum array. The process is repeated for each test frequency in the array of test frequencies, to generate a complete corrected spectrum array.
