Abstract:
A method in a wireless device (WD) is described. The method is at least for determining a geo-location of a target station using round-trip times (RTTs) of a plurality of signals transmitted by the WD and a plurality of response signals received from the target station corresponding to the plurality of signals transmitted by the WD. The method includes determining an expected response signal, and, for each transmitted signal of the plurality of signals, determining that a response signal type matches an expected response signal type, cross-correlating a set of samples of the response signal, searching for a predetermined characteristic of the expected response signal, and correlating at least a subset of bits of the set of bits of the received response signal with the set of expected bits of the expected response signal. Further, a peak rolling sum correlation and the RTTs are determined.
