Distance Algorithm

Hello,

I was wondering how everyone else was finding the distance to the target using the camera? I am using the algorithm mentioned in the paper Position Determination that I have posted below. My problem is that I have to keep on changing the effective focus length depending on my distance from the target to keep measurements accurate. Does anyone know of any better methods or what I doing wrong with my current method?

thanks
