Device and Method for Exchanging Information Over Terrestrial and Satellite Links

摘要

A method includes: defining a first range determination window within a first frame in response to expected propagation delays associated with a transmission of signals over a satellite link from a devices located within a first area, and defining a second range determination window within a second frame in response to propagation delays associated with a transmission of signals over the satellite link from devices located within a second area that differs from the first area; and transmitting, towards devices within the first and second area, a request to transmit range information at a certain time.
