For use in cancelling a distortion caused by multipath transmission to an original radio frequency pulse of an original pulse shape, a multipath canceller comprises a priliminary circuit for producing a distortionless pulse of the original pulse shape and a distortion cancelling circuit responsive to the distortionless pulse and each distorted pulse having the distortion for producing a distortion cancelled pulse at a correct pulse position which the original pulse would have if received through a direct path alone. The preliminary circuit may comprise a memory for the distortionless pulse. The distortion cancelling circuit may comprise an envelope detector for envelope detecting the distorted pulse to produce a detected pulse, a composer for composing the distortionless pulse with different amplitudes and pulse positions repeatedly into a composite pulse approximating the detected pulse, and a generator for generating the distortion cancelled pulse by using the distortionless pulse and a pulse position of one of the composite pulses that has an earliest occurrence. Alternatively, the preliminary circuit may comprise DFT and IDFT circuits for processing the distorted pulse into the distortionless pulse. The distortion cancelling circuit may comprise a cross-correlator for the distorted and the distortionless pulses and an autocorrelator for the distortionless pulse.

In a distance measuring equipment for measuring the distance between an interrogator and a transponder with high precision by detecting the time from transmission of an interrogation pulse from the interrogator to reception of a reply pulse transmitted from the transponder on the basis of timing positions of said respective pulses; as leading edges of the interrogation pulse and reply pulse, a waveform represented by the formula of: ##EQU1## where E and F represent finite positive values and T represents time, is used, or else as a leading edge of the interrogation pulse, a waveform which can be approximated by the above formula is used, while as a leading edge of the reply pulse, a waveform obtained by passing a waveform approximately expressed by the formula of: ##EQU2## through a low-pass filter having a predetermined cut-off frequency, is used.
