2 10/16/14 Chapter 7: Doppler - Level 1 Level 2 focuses on completing the Doppler equation, understanding scattering from red blood cells, understanding the Doppler angle and angle effects, the Doppler block diagram, Doppler processing, effects of wall filters, PW vs. CW Doppler, range ambiguity, HPRF Doppler, and color Doppler. Level 1 focuses on: Ø Ø Developing a basic understanding of the Doppler Effect Developing a simplified form of the Doppler equation Applications of the Doppler Effect The Doppler effect has been employed for many different applications. One of the most prevalent applications is radar. The Doppler effect has been used with radar techniques to determine the velocity of moving objects such as airplanes, automobiles, boats, trains, and even storm systems. The same Doppler principles have also been employed in the medical field. They has benefited from years of radar applications including advances designed to overcome limitations and artifacts. The Doppler Effect The Doppler Effect is an apparent change in frequency as a result of a change in wavelength caused by motion of a wave source relative to an observer. To demonstrate how the change in wavelength occurs we will consider what happens to a wave as it propagates over time. First we will consider the wave emanating from a stationary train. Then we will consider the wave as it emanates from a moving train. Finally, we will consider what happens to the same emanating wave if the train s velocity is increased. From these three examples, we will appreciate how the Doppler shift occurs. 2

3 10/16/14 Stationary Train and Wavelength Fig. 1: (Pg. 224) Notice how the sound propagates over time creating uniform, concentric circles as the wave propagates away from the stationary source. Both Observer A and Observer B hear the same pitch whistle as would be expected. Stationary Plane (Animation) (Pg. 224) Moving Train and Change in Wavelength Fig. 2: (Pg. 224) Notice how the sound propagating from the moving source results in a compression of the wavefronts towards Observer B and a decompression of the wavefronts relative to Observer A. Therefore, Observer A hears a lower pitch than the transmitted wave and Observer B hears a higher pitch than the transmitted wave. 3

4 10/16/14 Moving Plane (Animation) (Pg. 224) Fast Moving Train and Greater Change in Wavelength Fig. 3: (Pg. 225) Now notice that the compression and decompression effect (the Doppler Effect) is increased by a faster moving train. This fact implies that the Doppler shifted frequency (fdop) is related to the velocity (v) of the train. As the velocity increases, the Doppler shift increases. Fast Moving Plane (Animation) (Pg. 225) 4

5 10/16/14 Doppler Shift and Velocity From the animations, we saw that the Doppler shift increased with increasing velocity. Mathematically, this relationship is expressed as: fdop v Where: fdop = Doppler shifted frequency v = velocity of the sound source Doppler Shift (a change in frequency) The Doppler shift is really a difference in frequency between the frequency that was transmitted and the frequency that was received. f = f - f =Δf Dop detected transmitted If the detected frequency is lower than the transmitted frequency, the Doppler shift is negative. If the detected frequency is higher than the transmitted frequency, the Doppler shift is positive. The Doppler Shift (Examples) As just discussed, the Doppler shift f Dop is relative to the transmit frequency. If the transmit frequency is 2.0 MHz: a received frequency of: Ø MHz f Dop = MHz MHz = MHz = +1 khz Ø MHz f Dop = MHz MHz = MHz = -1 khz What is the Doppler shift (f Dop ) if the transmit frequency is 5.0 MHz when the received frequency is: Ø MHz f Dop = MHz MHz = MHz = +3 khz Ø MHz f Dop = MHz MHz = MHz = -2 khz 5

6 10/16/14 Doppler Shift and the Wavelength We showed that the Doppler shift results from a change of wavelength caused by motion relative to the observer. Since the wavelength is determined by both the frequency and the propagation velocity, we know that the Doppler equation will be affected by changes in both frequency and propagation velocity. λ= c f Effect of Frequency on Doppler Effect As shown in the figure below, if the wavelength is 10 meters for a transmit frequency of f, then the wavelength would be 5 meters for a transmitted frequency of 2f (frequency and wavelength are inversely related). Now imagine if the train moved one meter. Clearly one meter relative to 5 meters is a greater percentage than 1 meter relative to 10 meters. Hence, as the frequency increases, the Doppler Effect also increases. Fig. 4: (Pg. 227) Doppler Shift and Operating Frequency As just shown in the previous slide, as the frequency increases, the Doppler shift increases: f Dop f o Where: f Dop = Doppler shifted frequency f o = Transmitted frequency (Operating Frequency ) 6

7 10/16/14 Effect of Propagation Velocity on Doppler Effect As shown in the figure below, if the wavelength is 5 meters for a propagation velocity of c, then the wavelength would be 10 meters for a propagation velocity of 2c (propagation velocity and wavelength are directly related). Now imagine if the train moved one meter. Clearly one meter relative to 5 meters is a greater percentage than 1 meter relative to 10 meters. Hence, as the propagation velocity increases, the Doppler Effect decreases. Fig. 5: (Pg. 228) Doppler Shift and Propagation Velocity As just shown in the previous slide, as the propagation velocity increases, the Doppler shift decreases: f Dop 1 c Where: f Dop = Doppler shifted frequency c = Propagation velocity of the wave in the medium Simplified Doppler Equation If we combine the three relationships we have just seen into one equation, we achieve the simplified form of the Doppler equation: f Dop = 2 fov c Note the additional constant factor of 2. The factor of 2 can be considered to account for the roundtrip effect. 7
