Abstract
The present disclosure provides a system, method, and apparatus for detection and imaging. In one or more embodiments, the disclosed method involves transmitting, with a first optical transmitter, a first transmit signal to an object (e.g., a wire); and transmitting, with a second optical transmitter, a second transmit signal to the object. The method further involves receiving, with an optical receiver, a receive signal that is reflected from the object. In one or more embodiments, the receive signal is a function of the first transmit signal and the second transmit signal. Further, the method involves detecting, with a detector, the receive signal. The frequency of the receive signal is the sum of the frequency of the first transmit signal and the frequency of the second transmit signal, and/or is the difference between the frequency of the first transmit signal and the frequency of the second transmit signal.
