  2. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

    Doppler effect. The emitted signal toward the car is reflected back with a variation of frequency that depends on the speed away/toward the radar (160 km/h). This is only a component of the real speed (170 km/h). The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift), named after Austrian physicist Christian Doppler who proposed it in 1842, is the difference ...

  5. Continuous-wave radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous-wave_radar

    Continuous-wave radar ( CW radar) is a type of radar system where a known stable frequency continuous wave radio energy is transmitted and then received from any reflecting objects. [1] Individual objects can be detected using the Doppler effect, which causes the received signal to have a different frequency from the transmitted signal ...

  8. Pulse-Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-Doppler_radar

    A pulse-Doppler radar is a radar system that determines the range to a target using pulse-timing techniques, and uses the Doppler effect of the returned signal to determine the target object's velocity. It combines the features of pulse radars and continuous-wave radars, which were formerly separate due to the complexity of the electronics .
