5.4 The Doppler Log. This operation of this log is based on the mea the Doppler effect. A transducer fitted on the bottom of tne shee emits a us beam of sound vibrations in the watery sé > angle of ab O Gearees to the keel in the forward directicr The beam is bounced off the bed or a layer of water ard received back at the transdu The differance in frequesey transmitted and received sionals is measured ard 2 to the speed of the ship © sional is bounced off the sea bed fcalled Fot tom spees indicated will be in relation to the ved and will therefore be Speed over the ground. If however ed cannot be tracked a pally in deeper water, then the sig is bounced o & water layer (Water Track) and the ndicated will be Speed through the water. Most doppler logs have transducers to me eft speeds (ahead and astern) as well as athwartship t to measure speed in the athwartship direction (useful berthing). sch a transducer which measures both alo: es athwartship speed is called JANNUS CONFIGURATION. This log is the most accurate of all the logs described 38 useful both for ocea aanoeuver tr amt navigation as well as berthing amd in close waters.TRANSDUCER, MEASU, ALoniGsy HPSCF 4A) Ano ATHWARTSH IPS CPEs) SPeep.
