The multiple pulse train interference (MPTI) ranging system takes advantage of the high accuracy and absolute length measurement capability, but traditional scheme has a large measurement dead zone. In this Letter, we propose a MPTI ranging scheme based on chip-based soliton microcomb to achieve high-precision but no dead-zone measurement. The measurement optical path is improved to solve the problem of cross correlation interference fringe overlap, and a peak fitting algorithm is employed to further improve the measurement accuracy of the system. Using a commercial He-Ne interferometer, a 384 nm precision is obtained in 1.5 m distance measurements. Advantages of the simple optical path, high precision, and no measurement dead zone are expected to realize on-chip integration and provide a solution for precision measurement. © 2021 Author(s).
