Title:
DISTANCE-MEASURING DEVICE, DISTANCE-MEASURING METHOD, AND PROGRAM FOR THE DISTANCE MEASURING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006337328
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a distance-measuring device, capable of accurately measuring distance by preventing interferences among transmitted waves transmitted from the device and other propagated waves, a distance measuring method, and to provide a program for controlling the distance-measuring device.

A synchronization signal, transmitted from the outside, is received, a pulse signal synchronized with this synchronization signal is generated, the phase of the pulse signal is changed, then electromagnetic waves modulated, based on the pulse signal is transmitted to the outside, and the distance to an object having reflected the electromagnetic waves are calculated using the time difference starting from transmission of the electromagnetic waves to the reception of the reflected wave of the electromagnetic wave.
