  • Patent number: 11914021
    Abstract: An object is to enable measurement of position and velocity of a measurement object. A velocity measurement device includes a transmitting means, a receiving means, and a signal processing means. The transmitting means transmits a transmission signal by a transmitting antenna toward a measurement object. The receiving means receives a reflected wave from the measurement object with multiple receiving antennas and generates a reception signal for each of the receiving antennas. The signal processing means obtains a phase plane of the reflected wave with respect to an antenna plane of the multiple receiving antennas from a phase difference between the reception signals to specify an arrival direction of the reflected wave, obtains a distance to the measurement object from a propagation delay time of the reflected wave, and calculates a phase fluctuation of the reflected wave to calculate a velocity of the measurement object from the phase fluctuation.

  • Patent number: 10989589
    Abstract: An interferometric vibration observation device includes a transmitting unit, a receiving unit and a signal processing unit. The transmitting unit transmits a transmission signal toward an observation object. The receiving unit receives a reflection wave from the observation object with a plurality of receiving antennas and generates a reception signal for each of the receiving antennas. The signal processing unit obtains a phase plane of the reflection wave to an antenna plane from a phase difference between the reception signals, identifies an arrival direction and a signal strength of the reflection wave, calculates a phase variation of the reflection wave from a certain direction, and generates an observation signal representative of displacement of the observation object or a certain site of the observation object.
