Abstract

See full text

The present invention is a method of determining the time of arrival of an incident signal transmitted utilizing a code word that is interspersed with noise and diffracted and reflected signals of the incident signal. The incident, diffracted and reflected signals and noise are collectively defined as a combined signal. The method comprises receiving the combined signal; obtaining the code word to apply to the combined signal; comparing the combined signal with the code word to filter the incident signal and diffracted and reflected signals arising from the incident signal from the combined signal; utilizing the incident signal and related diffracted and reflected signals to determine a first parameter indicative of the incident signal's time of arrival; and filtering the first parameter utilizing a multipath mitigation algorithm to mitigate the influence of the diffracted and reflected signals to obtain a second parameter indicative of the incident signal's time of arrival.
