Abstract

Signals received are the resultant of the blood flow phasors in CW Doppler system and there are spectral broadening phenomena in it, in other words, frequency of signals corresponding to a moving RBC is not single. A model is presented that enables the detailed effects of spectral broadening to be calculated for a CW Doppler system by using geometric boundary argument. Results are given for the circular geometry.
