Abstract:
A travel distance measurement device includes a transmitting antenna that is disposed in a vehicle and emits a transmission signal, as a radio wave, toward a ground surface, a receiving antenna that is disposed in the vicinity of the transmitting antenna, and receives a radio wave reflected from the ground surface and acquires a reflection signal, a distance calculator (an IQ demodulator and a phase conversion integrator) that calculates the travel distance of the vehicle on the basis of the acquired reflection signal, a gyro sensor that measures a predetermined parameter regarding curve traveling of the vehicle, and a correcting operation unit that corrects the calculated travel distance on the basis of the measured parameter.
