Here we discuss the possibility of super-massive binary black hole (SMBBH) detection, using the shifts of the broad lines emitted from a binary system. We perform a number of simulations of shapes and shifts of H-beta lines emitted from SMBBHs, taking into account the emission from two different regions located around both black holes, and kinematical effects which should be present in a SMBBH. In the model we connect the parameters of the lines with the mass of black holes and find that the peak shift depends, not only on kinematical effects of system rotation and black hole mass ratio, but it is also a function of the individual masses of the two black holes (BHs).
