doppler-shifted frequency
51Matched filter — In telecommunications, a matched filter (originally known as a North filter[1]) is obtained by correlating a known signal, or template, with an unknown signal to detect the presence of the template in the unknown signal. This is equivalent to… …

56Introduction to general relativity — General relativity (GR) is a theory of gravitation that was developed by Albert Einstein between 1907 and 1915. According to general relativity, the observed gravitational attraction between masses results from the warping of space and time by… …
57Blue shift — is the shortening of a transmitted signal s wavelength, and/or an increase in its frequency, due to the Doppler Effect, which indicates that the object is moving toward the observer. The name comes from the fact that the shorter wavelength end of …
