Doppler('s) principle
Used attributively or in the possessive to designate an effect first explained by Doppler in 1842 (in Abh. d. k. böhm. Ges. d. Wiss. (1843) 5th ser. II. 465–82) and other phenomena related to it or caused by it, as Doppler broadening (of spectral lines), Doppler('s) principle; Doppler effect n. the effect on sound, light, or other waves of relative motion between the source of the waves and the observer: the observed frequency of the waves is higher or lower than the emitted frequency according as the source (or the observer) is moving towards or away from the observer (or the source). Doppler shift n. the change of the frequency resulting from the Doppler effect. Also in equipment or procedures utilizing the Doppler effect, as Doppler navigation, Doppler radar.

1871 E. Atkinson tr. A. Ganot Elem. Treat. Physics (ed. 5) v. i. 165 When a sounding body approaches the ear, the tone perceived is somewhat higher than the true one; but if the source of sound recedes..the tone perceived is lower.
