Ranging and tracking

Ranging and tracking are techniques used to determine the position or distance of an object. Ranging involves measuring how far away an object is, often by sending a signal (like radio waves) and timing how long it takes to return. Tracking goes a step further, continuously monitoring an object’s location over time to see how it moves. Together, these methods are essential for navigation, surveillance, and other applications, providing accurate spatial information for effective decision-making and safety.
