The Doppler effect, or Doppler shift, occurs when the movement of an observer relative to a source (or vice versa) causes a change in wavelength or frequency. Discovered by Austrian physicist Christian Doppler in 1842, this phenomenon is experienced in many different ways, such as when an ambu...
target's speed. When the signal is sent to a moving target, the reflected signal undergoes a Doppler frequency shift, the size of which is directly proportional to the target's speed. By analyzing the Doppler frequency shift in the received signal, the target's speed can be calculated. ...

Doppler meters measure frequency shifts caused by liquid flow. Two transducers are mounted in a case attached to one side of the pipe. A signal of known frequency is sent into the liquid to be measured. Solids, bubbles, and any discontinuity in the liquid cause the pulse to be reflected ...
Natural frequencyis the rate at which an object vibrates when it is disturbed (e.g. plucked, strummed, or hit). A vibrating object may have one or multiple natural frequencies. Simple harmonic oscillators can be used to model the natural frequency of an object. ...
digital Doppler receiver computer samples the reflected wave and calculates the phase shift from the emitted wave, determining the change in frequency. The velocity of the object can be calculated from the changes in frequency, although the range and the bearing of the target can not be ...
no Doppler effect. Not an engine revving either. The amplitude fluctuated by about 10 dB, irregularly, but with a period of 5 to 10 seconds. Weather was partly cloudy. Air was cool and dry. I would have guessed a plane except for the lack of frequency shift. I am wondering, could it...
The frequency shift (Doppler effect) is measured by the radar gun and the objects speed is determined. The frequencies used by the radar guns are called radar bands. X band was once the most common but is becoming rather rare since it is very easily detected by radar detectors. K and Ka...
(1) The principle of radar velocimeter is to apply Doppler effect, that is, the wave received by electromagnetic moving object has frequency shift effect. The radar velocimeter calculates the moving speed of the measured object according to the frequency shift of the received reflected wave. ...
Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) is a method of data transmission where a single information stream is split among several closely spaced narrowband subchannel frequencies instead of a single wideband channel frequency.
