Abstract
An opto-electronic dual-comb interferometric distance measuring method and device wherein a signal comb is chromatically divided into a target signal comb and a non-target signal comb at a emission position, preferably by an optical interleaver in a measurement probe of the device. Only the target signal comb serves as a free beam emitted to the target. The non-target signal comb serves for generation of additional or compensation internal phase differences. Thus, the distance to the target is based on first, target related phase differences and on the second, internal compensation phase differences.
