Abstract :
We consider microwave frequency shifters based on the cross Doppler effect (CDE). We analyse the process of the change of the frequency of electromagnetic waves, falling on such a receiver, taking account of the quantum mechanical nature of the radiation. A circuit of the experimental installation for the measurement of CDE, which can be realized on the base of quasioptical engineering, is also presented
