誤差を包含する結果が考えられ、しかも距離が短くなれ
ばなる程精度が悪くなるという傾向がある。For example, an ultrasonic level meter has been put into practical use as a device for measuring distance using ultrasonic waves. This method determines the distance to an object by measuring the round trip time to the object using ultrasonic waves. However, this technique has a problem with accuracy, and it is possible that the result includes an error of about ±1% (full scale), and the accuracy tends to deteriorate as the distance becomes shorter.

上の精度は期待できないというのが実情である。In addition, various technologies such as capacitance type, light reflection type, and eddy current type have been put into practical use as technologies for measuring short distances of about several mm, but the reading unit for all of them is about 10 μm, and higher accuracy is required. The reality is that we cannot expect it.

は根本的に異なるものである。On the other hand, as a technology similar to distance measurement technology, a technology has also been developed that applies the principle of a Michelson interferometer that uses electromagnetic waves to measure the distance traveled by an object. The technology is
Although it is possible to measure the distance traveled with high accuracy in units of wavelengths of light, it is only used to determine the distance an object has moved, and is fundamentally different from techniques that measure static distance from the object. It is something.

に達する電磁波と干渉を生じる。The electromagnetic wave just emitted from the irradiation device 1 enters the incident point B of the target object 3 through a path 4 at an incident angle θ, then reflects at a reflection angle θ (=incident angle), and passes through a path 6. Suppose that the signal reaches the receiving device 2. The electromagnetic waves that have reached the receiving device 2 in this way are directly transmitted to the receiving device 2 from the irradiation device 1 through the path 5.
