Abstract
A light wave distance meter according to the present invention includes: a light-emitting element that emits a distance measurement light; a light-receiving element that outputs a light-receiving signal; a frequency conversion unit that includes a bandpass filter; an arithmetic control unit that computes a distance value to a measurement object; a signal generator that generates a signal having a predetermined frequency; a waveform conversion unit that generates a waveform conversion signal; pulse generators that generate pulse signals by pulsating the signal having a predetermined frequency so as to have a waveform profile of a signal constituted of desired frequency components on the basis of the signal output from the signal generator and the waveform conversion signal output from the waveform conversion unit; and a drive unit that emits the distance measurement light based on the pulse signals.
