Abstract:
A method for determining the location of a frequency receiver device with respect to at least two frequency originator devices, each of a current location, the method including synchronizing a clock of the frequency receiver device with a clock of one of the at least two frequency originator devices; receiving by the frequency receiver device, a message including an identification code configured for identifying one of the at least two frequency originator devices and obtaining a broadcast time and a current location of the one of the at least two frequency originator devices by looking up a table correlating the at least two frequency originator devices and their respective broadcast times and current locations; calculating a time of flight of the message by calculating the difference between a receive time at which the message is received by the frequency receiver device and the broadcast time.
