    Abstract: In one aspect, a method performed by an access point in a wireless local area network (WLAN), includes receiving a first ranging request message from a first device and monitoring for a second ranging request message from a second device on a channel of the WLAN. The first ranging request message includes a device identifier of the first device and the second ranging request message includes a device identifier of the second device. In response to receiving the second ranging request message, the access point combines the device identifier of the first device, first timing information associated with the first ranging request message, the device identifier of the second device, and second timing information associated with the second ranging request message into a single ranging response message. The access point then broadcasts the single ranging response message on the channel of the WLAN.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods are disclosed for estimating a signal travel time, and thus distance between transceivers, in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. The signal travel time is measured between a transmit time (tT) and a receive window time (twindow) adjusted by the phase delay (TΦ). The phase delay (TΦ) is determined as a difference between a receive time (tR) and the receive window time (twindow). The receive time (tR) may be determined based on either an amplitude of the received signal at the receive window time (twindow) or when the received signal crosses a positive-negative axis. In synchronous systems, either a one-way time (OWT) or round-trip time (RTT) may be used for estimation. In asynchronous systems, an RTT is used for estimation.

    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of securing Global Navigation Satellite Systems are disclosure. In one exemplary embodiment, a mobile device may comprise: a communication interface configured to monitor signals from a plurality of satellites, a processor configured to determine impairment of one or more satellites in the plurality of satellites using the signals form the plurality of satellites, a memory configured to store a status of the determined impairment of one or more satellites in the plurality of satellites, and the communication interface that transmits the status of the determined impairment of the one or more satellites in the plurality of satellites to a server. The processor further determines a position of the mobile device using the status of the determined impairment of one or more satellites in the plurality of satellites, and stores the determined position and a corresponding digital certificate indicative of authenticity of the determined position in a memory.

    Abstract: Methods and circuits can down convert at least a first RF signal on a first path in a first frequency band to provide a first IF signal. A second RF signal on second path in a second frequency band can be down converted to provide a second IF signal. The first IF signal and the second IF signal are interspersed in the frequency domain, and the first frequency band is different from the second frequency band. A combiner can combine at least part of the first IF signal and the second IF signal to provide a combined signal on an output signal path for reception by a digital processing circuit. The first IF signal or second IF signal can be a Zero IF (ZIF), very low IF (VLIF), or Low IF (LIF) signal.
