A ranging system includes: a source generating a wideband incident wave that is transmitted toward a target and that is reflected by the target to form a reflected wave; a feedback detector to detect the reflected wave to generate a detected signal; an operator configured to perform low-pass filtering on the detected signal at an adjustable filtering bandwidth to generate a filtered signal, and calculate cross-correlation of a feedback signal that originates from the filtered signal and a reference signal that corresponds to the incident wave to generate a cross-correlation result; and a controller calculating a distance to the target based on an operation output that originates from the cross-correlation result. |
