engine noise pitch change

Can some one explain why the jet engine noise going over head changes so radically in pitch some times. The aircraft are invariably coming towards and the change can be up and down sequentially.I do not believe it to be throttle inputs,is it doppler effect if so why only on jet engines? Is the noise produced by certain A/C types or engine?
Thanks i a.
