A carrier wave is output, and frequency modulation is applied to this carrier wave by modulator a2. If the maximum frequency deviation is l, 3 KHz, the output signal frequency of modulator u3 is 100 KHz ± l,
8) G(z). The output signal of this modulator @ is supplied to light source 0 such as a semiconductor laser. The light from light source Q3 is a signal amplitude-modulated by the output signal of modulator @, and this The signal is applied to, for example, a reflecting mirror 114). Light source (1
3 is provided at the focal point of the reflecting mirror (14) so that the light reflected by the reflecting mirror (14) becomes parallel light.
The light source c31 and the reflecting mirror I are configured to be integrally rotatable, for example, in the force potential direction by a rotational drive means (15).The rotation of this rotational drive means u5 and the period of the modulation signal in the KA unit u4 are not synchronized. For example, in one rotation, KAIM No. 1
It is set to be a cycle. In this case, for example, a piezoelectric element for angle/voltage conversion may be installed on the rotational shaft of the rotation drive means μ to generate a voltage signal proportional to the rotation angle, and this voltage signal is supplied to the modulator α as a modulation signal. For example, the modulation signal period and the rotation of the reflecting mirror I correspond. In addition, the reflecting mirror I is
The sword rotates once in about 1 to 2 seconds.The slave device is equipped with a receiving system as shown in Figure 2, and the receiving system is rotated to receive signals from the main device. That is, the light from the reflecting mirror side of the main device is transmitted through the optical system t2.

In the direction measuring device configured in this manner, a frequency-modulated signal is transmitted while the transmission direction is changed by an optical system having a rotation period corresponding to the modulation signal period. For example, if the transmission direction is north or south, 100 KHz,

, 100KHz -1,8KHz in the west direction, and lOOKHz±1.9 in the direction between them.
A signal with a frequency between KHz is transmitted. Therefore, the direction of the main device can be determined by rotating the receiving optical system of the slave device and stopping the rotation after receiving the transmission signal from the main device. Then, if the received signal component wave number is discriminated by the cylinder wave number discrimination circuit (to), the angle (θ) of the main device ji01) with respect to the reference force direction (for example, north direction) (N) can be detected as shown in FIG. In this case, in the slave device C33, the reference force direction N
can be approximately known in advance using a magnet or the like. Therefore, in the above relationship between ground wave number and direction, signals of the same frequency are transmitted in two directions symmetrical to the line connecting east and west, but since the approximate direction of the reference force direction N is known in advance, the main The direction of c31) will not be lost.
