Abstract
A method includes generating a first modulated continuous wave from a generating location; transmitting the first modulated continuous wave to an object positioned at a distance from the generating location; generating a second modulated continuous wave from the generating location, wherein the second modulated continuous wave is generated at a predetermined time that is different from a predetermined time at which the first modulated continuous wave is generated; receiving, at a mixer, the first modulated continuous wave from the object; receiving, at the mixer, the second modulated continuous wave from the generating location; mixing the received first modulated continuous wave with the second modulated continuous wave to produce a beat signal to determine a range of the object from the generating location; and outputting the determined range of the object from the generating location.
