Device, system and method for obtaining timing information and ranging

摘要

A system includes first ( 1 ) and one or more second devices ( 2 ). A first signal ( 61 ) and a second signal ( 62 ) are transmitted from the first ( 1 ) to second ( 2 ) device and a third signal ( 63 ) is transmitted from the second to the first device. The times of these signals ( 61, 62, 63 ) being transmitted and received are measured and used to calculate timing information including a correction for different clock rates in first and second local clocks in the first and second devices.
