Abstract
A measurement arrangement for measuring the travel time of a laser beam, comprising a laser device configured to emit laser light with a laser wavelength toward the surrounding environment and one or more light detectors configured to absorb inbound laser light after it has been reflected back towards the measurement arrangement. The measurement arrangement also comprises an order-sorting filter configured to transmit laser light only in a first wavelength range, and a scanning Fabry-Pérot interferometer configured to transmit laser light only in a cavity resonance wavelength range. The first wavelength range is broader than the cavity resonance wavelength range, and a control unit is configured to shift the center of the cavity resonance wavelength range when the temperature of the laser device changes.
