the Doppler shift in ultrasound can be used to measure blood velocity, while police use the Doppler shift in radar (a microwave) to measure car velocities. In meteorology, the Doppler shift is used to track the motion of storm clouds
I am checking the range doppler map moving my hand towards and away from the radar. The motion seems correct but I do not fully understand why the doppler values (velocity) appears mirrored across the zero axis. That means, when I see a blob moving near the center of the plot i ...
Meanwhile, Garmin coined “MotionScope” for itsDoppler-based target speed discrimination feature on the new GMR Fantom 4- and 6-foot radars, and you can see it nicely marking moving targets in red with dark blue 10 second echo trails on the radar window above, with the useful trails carrie...
Since radar is mainly a distance sensor, we also did an analysis on the range distributions. The picture shown below tells about the information. Ideally, the distribution should be Uniform. In really life scenario, it is hard to detect far-away objects (objects that almost reach the maximum...
What are the applications of the Doppler effect in an accelerating frame? The Doppler effect in an accelerating frame has various applications in different fields such as astronomy, acoustics, and radar technology. It is used to study the motion of stars and galaxies, measure the speed of object...

The Doppler effect in radar is the change in frequency of a radio wave caused by the relative motion between the radar and the object being detected. This change in frequency can be used to measure the speed and direction of the object. ...
Two sets of equations are derived to 1) map airborne Doppler radar data from an aircraft-relative coordinate system to an earth-relative coordinate system, and 2) remove the platform motion from the observed Doppler velocities. These equations can be applied to data collected by the National Ocea...
It is worth mentioning that zero Doppler effect observed in the zero-index metamaterials is different from the concept of 'zero Doppler effect' in radar technology, which stands for a technique to compensate the normal Doppler frequency shift. The wave in the near zero-index medium has been ...
This technique certainly paves the way for completely new exploitation of SAR images to scan inside the Earth’s surface. Keywords: synthetic aperture radar; Doppler frequencies; multi-chromatic analysis; micro-motion; volcanoes; seismic images Graphical Abstract ...
