Abstract:
The present invention relates to an FMCW-LiDAR distance measurement apparatus in which a light source, in particular a laser, generates a frequency modulated transmission light beam as a transmission signal having a predetermined frequency deviation and transmits said frequency modulated transmission light beam into a measurement zone; a light receiver receives light reflected by objects in the measurement zone as a reception signal; a mixer mixes at least a portion of the transmission signal with the reception signal and with an oscillator frequency to generate a mixed signal; and the oscillator frequency is adapted to a desired measurement zone to achieve a high measurement accuracy in the desired measurement zone.
