    摘要: An evaluation device for path length measurement configured to evaluate a measured signal representing an intensity of a sequence of pulses of electromagnetic radiation, particularly a sequence of light pulses, as a function of time, after the sequence has traveled through a path length to be measured. The sequence of light pulses is generated with a repetition rate by a radiation source, particularly a light source. The evaluation device is configured to evaluate a first component of the measured signal, which oscillates with a first frequency, and a second component of the measured signal, which the second component oscillates with a second frequency that is greater than the first frequency. The first frequency may correspond to the repetition rate or a multiple of the repetition rate. The second frequency may correspond to another multiple of the repetition rate.

    摘要: An evaluation device, measuring arrangement and method for path length measurement. The evaluation device for path length measurement is configured to evaluate a measured signal which represents an intensity of a sequence of pulses of electromagnetic radiation as a function of time. The sequence of pulses has a repetition rate. The evaluation device is configured to determine a phase difference between a component of the measured signal, the component oscillating with a frequency, and a reference signal which oscillates with the frequency. For this purpose, the evaluation device generates, for example by frequency mixing, a first signal and a second signal which have another phase difference, such that the first signal and the second signal each oscillates with another frequency which is different from said frequency, and that the other phase difference has a predetermined relation to the phase difference.
