    I was about to post the same thing ;)

    Slightly poorly written article title.

    Researchers in China have harnessed the power of the Doppler effect to achieve a breakthrough in submarine detection

    According to the researchers, this virtual signal source is capable of emitting electromagnetic waves continuously while travelling at close to the speed of light.

    The thing moving at the speed of light is the emitting source.

      That makes more sense. The concept is pretty cool, and difficult to explain. My first thought was that the article was written by someone who wasn’t very scientifically literate, but the author does actually seem to have the background to understand this stuff.
