The Doppler effect (also Doppler shift) is the change in the frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the source of the wave.^[1][2][3] The Doppler effect is named after the physicist Christian Doppler, who described the phenomenon in 1842. A common example of Doppler shift is the change of pitch heard when a vehicle sounding a horn approaches and recedes from an observer. Compared to the emitted frequency, the received frequency is higher during the approach, identical at the instant of passing by, and lower during the recession.^[4]

When the source of the sound wave is moving towards the observer, each successive cycle of the wave is emitted from a position closer to the observer than the previous cycle.^[4][5] Hence, from the observer's perspective, the time between cycles is reduced, meaning the frequency is increased. Conversely, if the source of the sound wave is moving away from the observer, each cycle of the wave is emitted from a position farther from the observer than the previous cycle, so the arrival time between successive cycles is increased, thus reducing the frequency.

For waves that propagate in a medium, such as sound waves, the velocity of the observer and of the source are relative to the medium in which the waves are transmitted.^[3] The total Doppler effect in such cases may therefore result from motion of the source, motion of the observer, motion of the medium, or any combination thereof. For waves propagating in vacuum, as is possible for electromagnetic waves or gravitational waves, only the difference in velocity between the observer and the source needs to be considered.

History

Experiment by Buys Ballot (1845) depicted on a wall in Utrecht (2019)

Doppler first proposed this effect in 1842 in his treatise "Über das farbige Licht der Doppelsterne und einiger anderer Gestirne des Himmels" (On the coloured light of the binary stars and some other stars of the heavens).^[6] The hypothesis was tested for sound waves by Buys Ballot in 1845.^{[p 1]} He confirmed that the sound's pitch was higher than the emitted frequency when the sound source approached him, and lower than the emitted frequency when the sound source receded from him. Hippolyte Fizeau discovered independently the same phenomenon on electromagnetic waves in 1848 (in France, the effect is sometimes called "effet Doppler-Fizeau" but that name was not adopted by the rest of the world as Fizeau's discovery was six years after Doppler's proposal).^{[p 2][7]} In Britain, John Scott Russell made an experimental study of the Doppler effect (1848).^{[p 3]}

General

In classical physics, where the speeds of source and the receiver relative to the medium are lower than the speed of waves in the medium, the relationship between observed frequency ${\displaystyle f}$ and emitted frequency ${\displaystyle f_{\text{0}}}$ is given by:^[8] $${\displaystyle f=\left({\frac {c\pm v_{\text{r}}}{c\mp v_{\text{s}}}}\right)f_{0}}$$ where

• ${\displaystyle c}$ is the propagation speed of waves in the medium;
• ${\displaystyle v_{\text{r}}}$ is the speed of the receiver relative to the medium. In the formula, ${\displaystyle v_{\text{r}}}$ is added to ${\displaystyle c}$ if the receiver is moving towards the source, subtracted if the receiver is moving away from the source;
• ${\displaystyle v_{\text{s}}}$ is the speed of the source relative to the medium. ${\displaystyle v_{\text{s}}}$ is subtracted from ${\displaystyle c}$ if the source is moving towards the receiver, added if the source is moving away from the receiver.

Note this relationship predicts that the frequency will decrease if either source or receiver is moving away from the other.

Equivalently, under the assumption that the source is either directly approaching or receding from the observer: $${\displaystyle {\frac {f}{v_{wr}}}={\frac {f_{0}}{v_{ws}}}={\frac {1}{\lambda }}}$$ where

• ${\displaystyle v_{wr}}$ is the wave's speed relative to the receiver;
• ${\displaystyle v_{ws}}$ is the wave's speed relative to the source;
• ${\displaystyle \lambda }$ is the wavelength.

If the source approaches the observer at an angle (but still with a constant speed), the observed frequency that is first heard is higher than the object's emitted frequency. Thereafter, there is a monotonic decrease in the observed frequency as it gets closer to the observer, through equality when it is coming from a direction perpendicular to the relative motion (and was emitted at the point of closest approach; but when the wave is received, the source and observer will no longer be at their closest), and a continued monotonic decrease as it recedes from the observer. When the observer is very close to the path of the object, the transition from high to low frequency is very abrupt. When the observer is far from the path of the object, the transition from high to low frequency is gradual.

If the speeds ${\displaystyle v_{\text{s}}}$ and ${\displaystyle v_{\text{r}}\,}$ are small compared to the speed of the wave, the relationship between observed frequency ${\displaystyle f}$ and emitted frequency ${\displaystyle f_{\text{0}}}$ is approximately^[8]

Observed frequency	Change in frequency
${\displaystyle f=\left(1+{\frac {\Delta v}{c}}\right)f_{0}}$	${\displaystyle \Delta f={\frac {\Delta v}{c}}f_{0}}$

where

• ${\displaystyle \Delta f=f-f_{0}}$
• ${\displaystyle \Delta v=-(v_{\text{r}}-v_{\text{s}})}$ is the opposite of the relative speed of the receiver with respect to the source: it is positive when the source and the receiver are moving towards each other.

Proof

Given ${\displaystyle f=\left({\frac {c+v_{\text{r}}}{c+v_{\text{s}}}}\right)f_{0}}$

we divide for ${\displaystyle c}$ $${\displaystyle f=\left({\frac {1+{\frac {v_{\text{r}}}{c}}}{1+{\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}}}\right)f_{0}=\left(1+{\frac {v_{\text{r}}}{c}}\right)\left({\frac {1}{1+{\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}}}\right)f_{0}}$$

Since ${\displaystyle {\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}\ll 1}$ we can substitute using the Taylor's series expansion of ${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{1+x}}}$ truncating all ${\displaystyle x^{2}}$ and higher terms: $${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{1+{\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}}}\approx 1-{\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}}$$

When substituted in the last line, one gets: $${\displaystyle \left(1+{\frac {v_{\text{r}}}{c}}\right)\left(1-{\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}\right)f_{0}=\left(1+{\frac {v_{\text{r}}}{c}}-{\frac {v_{\text{s}}}{c}}-{\frac {v_{\text{r}}v_{\text{s}}}{c^{2}}}\right)f_{0}}$$

For small ${\displaystyle v_{\text{s}}}$ and ${\displaystyle v_{\text{r}}}$, the last term ${\displaystyle {\frac {v_{\text{r}}v_{\text{s}}}{c^{2}}}}$ becomes insignificant, hence: $${\displaystyle \left(1+{\frac {v_{\text{r}}-v_{\text{s}}}{c}}\right)f_{0}}$$

• 
  Stationary sound source produces sound waves at a constant frequency f, and the wave-fronts propagate symmetrically away from the source at a constant speed c. The distance between wave-fronts is the wavelength. All observers will hear the same frequency, which will be equal to the actual frequency of the source where f = f₀.
• 
  The same sound source is radiating sound waves at a constant frequency in the same medium. However, now the sound source is moving with a speed υ_s = 0.7 c. Since the source is moving, the centre of each new wavefront is now slightly displaced to the right. As a result, the wave-fronts begin to bunch up on the right side (in front of) and spread further apart on the left side (behind) of the source. An observer in front of the source will hear a higher frequency f = ⁠c + 0/c – 0.7c⁠ f₀ = 3.33 f₀ and an observer behind the source will hear a lower frequency f = ⁠c − 0/c + 0.7c⁠ f₀ = 0.59 f₀.
• 
  Now the source is moving at the speed of sound in the medium (υ_s = c). The wave fronts in front of the source are now all bunched up at the same point. As a result, an observer in front of the source will detect nothing until the source arrives and an observer behind the source will hear a lower frequency f = ⁠c – 0/c + c⁠ f₀ = 0.5 f₀.
• 
  The sound source has now surpassed the speed of sound in the medium, and is traveling at 1.4 c. Since the source is moving faster than the sound waves it creates, it actually leads the advancing wavefront. The sound source will pass by a stationary observer before the observer hears the sound. As a result, an observer in front of the source will detect nothing and an observer behind the source will hear a lower frequency f = ⁠c – 0/c + 1.4c⁠ f₀ = 0.42 f₀.

Consequences

Assuming a stationary observer and a wave source moving towards the observer at (or exceeding) the speed of the wave, the Doppler equation predicts an infinite (or negative) frequency as from the observer's perspective. Thus, the Doppler equation is inapplicable for such cases. If the wave is a sound wave and the sound source is moving faster than the speed of sound, the resulting shock wave creates a sonic boom.

Lord Rayleigh predicted the following effect in his classic book on sound: if the observer were moving from the (stationary) source at twice the speed of sound, a musical piece previously emitted by that source would be heard in correct tempo and pitch, but as if played backwards.^[9]

Applications

Sirens

Sirens on passing emergency vehicles.

A siren on a passing emergency vehicle will start out higher than its stationary pitch, slide down as it passes, and continue lower than its stationary pitch as it recedes from the observer. Astronomer John Dobson explained the effect thus:

The reason the siren slides is because it doesn't hit you.

In other words, if the siren approached the observer directly, the pitch would remain constant, at a higher than stationary pitch, until the vehicle hit him, and then immediately jump to a new lower pitch. Because the vehicle passes by the observer, the radial speed does not remain constant, but instead varies as a function of the angle between his line of sight and the siren's velocity: $${\displaystyle v_{\text{radial}}=v_{\text{s}}\cos(\theta )}$$ where ${\displaystyle \theta }$ is the angle between the object's forward velocity and the line of sight from the object to the observer.

Astronomy

Main article: Relativistic Doppler effect

Redshift of spectral lines in the optical spectrum of a supercluster of distant galaxies (right), as compared to that of the Sun (left)

The Doppler effect for electromagnetic waves such as light is of widespread use in astronomy to measure the speed at which stars and galaxies are approaching or receding from us, resulting in so called blueshift or redshift, respectively. This may be used to detect if an apparently single star is, in reality, a close binary, to measure the rotational speed of stars and galaxies, or to detect exoplanets. This effect typically happens on a very small scale; there would not be a noticeable difference in visible light to the unaided eye.^[10] The use of the Doppler effect in astronomy depends on knowledge of precise frequencies of discrete lines in the spectra of stars.

Among the nearby stars, the largest radial velocities with respect to the Sun are +308 km/s (BD-15°4041, also known as LHS 52, 81.7 light-years away) and −260 km/s (Woolley 9722, also known as Wolf 1106 and LHS 64, 78.2 light-years away). Positive radial speed means the star is receding from the Sun, negative that it is approaching.

The relationship between the expansion of the universe and the Doppler effect is not simple matter of the source moving away from the observer.^[11][12] In cosmology, the redshift of expansion is considered separate from redshifts due to gravity or Doppler motion.^[13]

Distant galaxies also exhibit peculiar motion distinct from their cosmological recession speeds. If redshifts are used to determine distances in accordance with Hubble's law, then these peculiar motions give rise to redshift-space distortions.^[14]

Radar

Main article: Doppler radar

U.S. Military Police using a radar gun, an application of Doppler radar, to catch speeding violators.

The Doppler effect is used in some types of radar, to measure the velocity of detected objects. A radar beam is fired at a moving target – e.g. a motor car, as police use radar to detect speeding motorists – as it approaches or recedes from the radar source. Each successive radar wave has to travel farther to reach the car, before being reflected and re-detected near the source. As each wave has to move farther, the gap between each wave increases, increasing the wavelength. In some situations, the radar beam is fired at the moving car as it approaches, in which case each successive wave travels a lesser distance, decreasing the wavelength. In either situation, calculations from the Doppler effect accurately determine the car's speed. Moreover, the proximity fuze, developed during World War II, relies upon Doppler radar to detonate explosives at the correct time, height, distance, etc.^{[citation needed]}

Because the Doppler shift affects the wave incident upon the target as well as the wave reflected back to the radar, the change in frequency observed by a radar due to a target moving at relative speed ${\displaystyle \Delta v}$ is twice that from the same target emitting a wave:^[15] $${\displaystyle \Delta f={\frac {2\Delta v}{c}}f_{0}.}$$

Medical

Main article: Doppler ultrasonography

Colour flow ultrasonography (Doppler) of a carotid artery – scanner and screen

An echocardiogram can, within certain limits, produce an accurate assessment of the direction of blood flow and the velocity of blood and cardiac tissue at any arbitrary point using the Doppler effect. One of the limitations is that the ultrasound beam should be as parallel to the blood flow as possible. Velocity measurements allow assessment of cardiac valve areas and function, abnormal communications between the left and right side of the heart, leaking of blood through the valves (valvular regurgitation), and calculation of the cardiac output. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound using gas-filled microbubble contrast media can be used to improve velocity or other flow-related medical measurements.^[16][17]

Although "Doppler" has become synonymous with "velocity measurement" in medical imaging, in many cases it is not the frequency shift (Doppler shift) of the received signal that is measured, but the phase shift (when the received signal arrives).^{[p 4]}

Velocity measurements of blood flow are also used in other fields of medical ultrasonography, such as obstetric ultrasonography and neurology. Velocity measurement of blood flow in arteries and veins based on Doppler effect is an effective tool for diagnosis of vascular problems like stenosis.^[18]

Flow measurement

Instruments such as the laser Doppler velocimeter (LDV), and acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) have been developed to measure velocities in a fluid flow. The LDV emits a light beam and the ADV emits an ultrasonic acoustic burst, and measure the Doppler shift in wavelengths of reflections from particles moving with the flow. The actual flow is computed as a function of the water velocity and phase. This technique allows non-intrusive flow measurements, at high precision and high frequency.

Velocity profile measurement

Developed originally for velocity measurements in medical applications (blood flow), Ultrasonic Doppler Velocimetry (UDV) can measure in real time complete velocity profile in almost any liquids containing particles in suspension such as dust, gas bubbles, emulsions. Flows can be pulsating, oscillating, laminar or turbulent, stationary or transient. This technique is fully non-invasive.

Satellites

Possible Doppler shifts in dependence of the elevation angle (LEO: orbit altitude ${\displaystyle h}$ = 750 km). Fixed ground station.[19]

Geometry for Doppler effects. Variables: ${\displaystyle {\vec {v}}_{\text{mob}}}$ is the velocity of the mobile station, ${\displaystyle {\vec {v}}_{\text{Sat}}}$ is the velocity of the satellite, ${\displaystyle {\vec {v}}_{\text{rel,sat}}}$ is the relative velocity of the satellite, ${\displaystyle \phi }$ is the elevation angle of the satellite and ${\displaystyle \theta }$ is the driving direction with respect to the satellite.

Doppler effect on the mobile channel. Variables: ${\displaystyle f_{c}={\frac {c}{\lambda _{\rm {c}}}}}$ is the carrier frequency, ${\displaystyle f_{\rm {D,max}}={\frac {v_{\rm {mob}}}{\lambda _{\rm {c}}}}}$ is the maximum Doppler shift due to the mobile station moving (see Doppler Spread) and ${\displaystyle f_{\rm {D,Sat}}}$ is the additional Doppler shift due to the satellite moving.

Satellite navigation

Main article: Satellite navigation

The Doppler shift can be exploited for satellite navigation such as in Transit and DORIS.

Satellite communication

Main article: Satellite communication

Doppler also needs to be compensated in satellite communication. Fast moving satellites can have a Doppler shift of dozens of kilohertz relative to a ground station. The speed, thus magnitude of Doppler effect, changes due to earth curvature. Dynamic Doppler compensation, where the frequency of a signal is changed progressively during transmission, is used so the satellite receives a constant frequency signal.^[20] After realizing that the Doppler shift had not been considered before launch of the Huygens probe of the 2005 Cassini–Huygens mission, the probe trajectory was altered to approach Titan in such a way that its transmissions traveled perpendicular to its direction of motion relative to Cassini, greatly reducing the Doppler shift.^[21]

Doppler shift of the direct path can be estimated by the following formula:^[22] $${\displaystyle f_{\rm {D,dir}}={\frac {v_{\rm {mob}}}{\lambda _{\rm {c}}}}\cos \phi \cos \theta }$$ where ${\displaystyle v_{\text{mob}}}$ is the speed of the mobile station, ${\displaystyle \lambda _{\rm {c}}}$ is the wavelength of the carrier, ${\displaystyle \phi }$ is the elevation angle of the satellite and ${\displaystyle \theta }$ is the driving direction with respect to the satellite.

The additional Doppler shift due to the satellite moving can be described as: $${\displaystyle f_{\rm {D,sat}}={\frac {v_{\rm {rel,sat}}}{\lambda _{\rm {c}}}}}$$ where ${\displaystyle v_{\rm {rel,sat}}}$ is the relative speed of the satellite.

Audio

The Leslie speaker, most commonly associated with and predominantly used with the famous Hammond organ, takes advantage of the Doppler effect by using an electric motor to rotate an acoustic horn around a loudspeaker, sending its sound in a circle. This results at the listener's ear in rapidly fluctuating frequencies of a keyboard note.

Vibration measurement

A laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) is a non-contact instrument for measuring vibration. The laser beam from the LDV is directed at the surface of interest, and the vibration amplitude and frequency are extracted from the Doppler shift of the laser beam frequency due to the motion of the surface.

Robotics

Dynamic real-time path planning in robotics to aid the movement of robots in a sophisticated environment with moving obstacles often take help of Doppler effect.^[23] Such applications are specially used for competitive robotics where the environment is constantly changing, such as robosoccer.

Inverse Doppler effect

Since 1968 scientists such as Victor Veselago have speculated about the possibility of an inverse Doppler effect. The size of the Doppler shift depends on the refractive index of the medium a wave is traveling through. Some materials are capable of negative refraction, which should lead to a Doppler shift that works in a direction opposite that of a conventional Doppler shift.^[24] The first experiment that detected this effect was conducted by Nigel Seddon and Trevor Bearpark in Bristol, United Kingdom in 2003.^{[p 5]} Later, the inverse Doppler effect was observed in some inhomogeneous materials, and predicted inside a Vavilov–Cherenkov cone.^[25]
