but that will mean you should have a Tx,Rx set on both sides of the measurement range.
Indeed, I was mostlikly thinking about relaying it back to the transmiter (well to the receiver on the transmiter side)
Although for now, im going to start just by trying to get the receiver to get the distance between it and its transmiter
If the transmitter and receiver had clocks that were precisely synched it's possible
I have never really played with transmiters but if I understand what you are saying, the signal when being transmisted contains sometype of timestamp?
If so then the receiver could read the time at which the signal was sent and in return substract it from received time which would provided a value that could possibly be used to calculate a distance in time?
This would mean that instead of trying to determine distance to be in meters, I could do it using miliseconds or seconds? besing that for example a 50 second delay could be equal to 10meters? If the delay is below 50 seconds its below 10meters and about 50 seconds is above 10meters
but you will need a tight sync.
As for the sync goes (if I understood the top part correctly) the 10meters does not have to be exactly precise. Thus if the clock were not completly in sync, It would not matter so much as long as it is still possible to determine if the distance is close enough to the range.
Is this somewhat correct or am I completly blinded by my own imagination? hehe
Are there any devices, toys, gadgets etc.. that any of you are aware that does some type distance calculation from a transmiter to a receiver?
thanks
