Abstract
A plurality of first wireless devices monitor a ranging exchange of transmissions between a target wireless device and a second wireless device in order to record for each of the plurality of first wireless devices a time of reception of a first transmission that is sent from the second wireless device to the target wireless device and a time of reception of a second transmission that is sent from the target wireless device to the second wireless device. Using a timing error computed from the estimated location, a modification is made of the time of transmission of the first transmission to produce a first modified timestamp and of the time of reception of the second transmission to produce a second modified timestamp. A ranging measurement is computed of the target wireless device relative to the second wireless device using the first modified timestamp and the second modified timestamp.
