Disclosed are a temperature measurement apparatus and method for measuring
temperature by using RF signals having different frequencies. The
temperature measurement apparatus includes a parameter generation unit
for generating a first parameter based on a radio frequency (RF) signal
having a first frequency and a second parameter based on an RF signal
having a second frequency; a parameter detection unit for detecting the
generated first and second parameters; and a control unit for calculating
a temperature value based on the detected first and second parameters.
Accordingly, the temperature measurement apparatus can measure
temperature by use of existing components and received RF signals without
any addition of a temperature sensor, as well as measure temperature
precisely without having any influence on the intensities of RF signals
that can vary due to the changes of transmission distances and
signal-receiving environments.
