ABSTRACT:
A communication device (e.g., an vehicle-mounted device) comprises a transmitter that transmits a distance-calculation signal with which to calculate a distance to a partner communication device (e.g., a mobile device), a detector that receives the distance-calculation signal returned from the partner communication device and detects a phase difference between the distance-calculation signal when transmitted and the distance-calculation signal when received, and a calculator that calculates the distance to the partner communication device based on the phase difference detected by the detector.
