Abstract

SE EXPONE UN PROCEDIMIENTO Y APARATO PARA LA MEDICION DE DISTANCIAS, EN EL QUE SE TRANSMITEN UNA PRIMERA Y UNA SEGUNDA SEÑAL QUE TIENEN DIFERENTES VELOCIDADES DE PROPAGACION, ENTRE UN TRANSMISOR (2) SITUADO EN UN PRIMER LUGAR Y UN RECEPTOR (3) SITUADO EN UN SEGUNDO LUGAR. LA DISTANCIA ENTRE LOS LUGARES PRIMERO Y SEGUNDO SE DETERMINA POR LA DIFERENCIA DE TIEMPO DE PROPAGACION ENTRE LAS SEÑALES PRIMERA Y SEGUNDA.
