Abstract
Coherent ranging is widely used as an optical method to measure a distance from a very fine area to a very wide area. Since distance measurement depends on light interference, a limitation occurs in the coherence length of a laser source light. We attempted to overcome this problem by creating multiple delay lines for each wavelength using a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) reflector in the interferometer. Using the proposed method, it is possible to measure the extended longer distance by using the conventional laser with a short coherence length.
