Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A radio altimeter includes a voltage controlled oscillator outputting a radio frequency signal through a forward path in a direction from the voltage controlled oscillator to a radio frequency antenna, a path extending unit positioned in the forward path to receive the radio frequency signal to delay the radio frequency signal to generate a delayed radio frequency signal. The radio frequency antenna transmits the delayed radio frequency signal to ground and receives the delayed radio frequency signal reflected from the ground. The radio altimeter also includes a mixer that receives the reflected delayed radio frequency signal through a signal reception path from the radio frequency antenna and the radio frequency signal from the voltage controlled oscillator and mixes the radio frequency signal and the reflected delayed radio frequency signal to output a beat frequency signal which is used to calculate altitude with respect to the ground.
