In this paper, we study the characteristic scale of transition to cosmic homogeneity of the universe, $\mathcal{R}_H$, as a standard ruler, to constrain cosmological parameters on mock galaxy catalogues.

Defining the scale of transition to homogeneity as the scale at which $\mathcal{D}_2(r)$ reaches 3 within $1\%$, i. e. $\mathcal{D}_2(r)>2. 97$ for $r>\mathcal{R}_H$, we find $\mathcal{R}_H = (63. 3\pm0. 7) \ h^{-1}\ \mathrm{Mpc}$, in agreement at the percentage level with the predictions of the $\Lambda$CDM model $\mathcal{R}_H=62. 0\ h^{-1}\ \mathrm{Mpc}$.
