Title
Synthetic-wavelength interferometry improved with frequency calibration and unambiguity range extension
Abstract
We improve the accuracy of distance measurements with synthetic-wavelength interferometry by referencing the spectral spacing of the free-running light sources to a high-precision radio-frequency oscillator. In addition, we increase the unambiguity range with a time-of-flight technique. Distances to scattering technical surfaces can be measured with micrometer accuracy and an unambiguity range of 1.17 m. The measurement rate amounts to 300 Hz.
