Issues related to estimating the influence of quasi-deterministic and fluctuating multiplicative noise on the delay resolution and frequency resolution of systems processing radio signals based on the Woodward criterion for narrow-band and broadband signals are considered. The problem of resolution when detecting or measuring signal parameters can be considered both for useful signals alone and for cases when interfering signals are present as well. It is pointed out that the effect of multiplicative noise on the signal almost always leads to a resolution problem. It is shown, that under the influence of significant broadband multiplicative noise, the time resolution interval is determined only by the signal envelope and does not depend on its phase structure. For instance, for signals with a rectangular or bell-shaped envelope, it is equal to the equivalent signal duration. Examples of calculating resolution intervals under the influence of multiplicative noise are given. Taking into account the effect of multiplicative noise on signal resolution leads to an increase in the efficiency of radio systems, detection of objects being an example.
