Speed measurement by the doppler effect

Abstract

This dissertation describes the design steps and the theoretical background of the project "SPEED MEASUREMENT BY THE DOPPLER EFFECT". The theoretical principles underlying this project, could be well-defined into two basic sections; namely the Doppler Affect theory and Microwave theory. A substantial part of this dissertation delves into the theoretical principles of microwaves and also presents a general study of microwave components and techniques. This dissertation also includes an analysis of a microwave link and a report of its operation. Finally, as a further academic exercise, directed towards gaining a deeper insight of microwave technology, a series of practical sessions were conducted on a microwave measurement setup and a short report is presented here.
