There is provided an apparatus (300) for measuring a distance to a target (312), comprising: a transmitter (302) configured to transmit an optical pulse (310) towards the target (312), a receiver channel (304) configured to receive the optical pulse (310) reflected from the target (312), and a processor (306) configured to measure a time intervaf between the transmission and detection of the optical pulse (310) at a predefined amplitude threshold level (11OA, 110B), to determine a time domain parameter from the detected optical pulse (310) at one or more amplitude threshold levels (110A, 110B), to convert the time domain parameter value into a correction value by a conversion model; to correct a timing error in the measured time interval by the correction value, and to convert the error-corrected time interval into a distance to the target (312). |
