A concept for high accuracy laser ranging will be presented. It is based on an injection seeded laser with frequency-shifted feedback making use of a non-Hänsch-type frequency comb. The method is distinctively different from schemes available on the market. An accuracy of 1 µm (or better) is achieved over meter-range. The underlying non-trivial theory will be sketched and results presented.
