English term or phrase: impulse response shape

"impulse response shape" in a text detailing a SAR radar system for a surveillance aircraft ; the terms are in the subsection titled "radar modes and performance".

"There are four critical measures to SAR imaging performance. They are the impulse response shape (resolution), signal-to-noise ratio, clutter-to-noise ratio and multiplicative noise."

I am not satisfied with "la forme de l'impulsion de réponse". Any suggestions?

forme de réponse impulsionnelle

Explanation:
réponse impulsionnelle

La réponse en impulsion, encore appelée réponse impulsionnelle ou percussionnelle, caractérise les enceintes acoustiques comme tous les systèmes dynamiques fonctionnant en régime linéaire (sans distorsion). Elle permet en particulier de déduire : - les courbes de réponse (niveau et phase) en fonction de la fréquence - les temps de propagation des différentes composantes spectrales du signal d'entrée, encore appelés temps de propagation de groupe -les réponses à tous les signaux d'entrée, transitoires ou non.

forme de réponse impulsionnelle

La courbe a une bonne forme de réponse impulsionnelle dans le sens où il y a amortissement des oscillations.
La forme de réponse impulsionnelle améliorée est obtenue en dilatant l'amplitude de la réponse initiale a(t) mais en comprimant d'autant l'échelle des temps.
