  2. Doppler effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect

    Doppler shift of the direct path can be estimated by the following formula: [22], = ⁡ ⁡ where is the speed of the mobile station, is the wavelength of the carrier, is the elevation angle of the satellite and is the driving direction with respect to the satellite. The additional Doppler shift due to the satellite moving can be described as ...

  3. Doppler tracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_tracking

    Doppler tracking.The Doppler effect allows the measurement of the distance between a transmitter from space and a receiver on the ground by observing how the frequency received from the transmitter changes as it approaches the transmitter, is overhead, and moves away.

  4. GPS signals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_signals

    The carrier frequency varies by roughly 5 kHz due to the Doppler effect when the receiver is stationary; if the receiver moves, the variation is higher. The code frequency deviation is 1/1,540 times the carrier frequency deviation for L1 because the code frequency is 1/1,540 of the carrier frequency (see § Frequencies used by GPS). The down ...

  5. Frequency ambiguity resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_ambiguity_resolution

    Radar pulsing causes a phenomenon called aliasing, which occurs when the Doppler frequency created by reflector motion exceeds the pulse repetition frequency (PRF). [1] This concept is related to range ambiguity resolution. Doppler frequency shift is introduced onto reflected signals used by radar.

  6. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    Doppler spectrum. Deliberately no units given (but could be dBu and MHz for example). This is an issue only with a particular type of system; the pulse-Doppler radar, which uses the Doppler effect to resolve velocity from the apparent change in frequency caused by targets that have net radial velocities compared to the radar device. Examination ...

  7. Satellite geolocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_geolocation

    The frequency differences observed are due to different Doppler shift resulting from relative satellite motion and differences in the translation frequencies of the two satellite channels. Channel translation frequencies and downlink Doppler shift and delay can be calibrated out of the measurements by observing transmitters of known location ...

  8. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

    The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift), named after Austrian physicist Christian Doppler who proposed it in 1842, is the difference between the observed frequency and the emitted frequency of a wave for an observer moving relative to the source of the waves. It is commonly heard when a vehicle sounding a siren approaches, passes and recedes from ...

  9. Pulse-Doppler signal processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-Doppler_signal...

    Pulse-Doppler signal processing is a radar and CEUS performance enhancement strategy that allows small high-speed objects to be detected in close proximity to large slow moving objects. Detection improvements on the order of 1,000,000:1 are common.
