Abstract:
A method for measuring speed involves calculating and measuring speed of an object based on a distance and a time obtained by a method for measuring distance and a method for measuring time, respectively. The time between distance measuring sessions is obtained using the cycle number of a reference signal based on a clock mask synchronous with the distance measuring sessions. The time is corrected according to a plurality of phase shift signals generated based on the reference signal. An error of the time is minimized by increasing the quantity of the phase shift signals. The method enhances the accuracy of the measured time between distance measuring sessions, speeds up speed measurement, and reduces the required circuit areas. A system for measuring speed is further introduced for use with the method.
