Abstract

Method of timing, in a receiver, a radio signal generated in and transmitted from a transmitter, the radio signal comprising a series of frequency chirps, the system including: receiving the radio signal from the transmitter; synthesizing projection vectors comprising a series of frequency chirps that are a complex-conjugate image of those comprised in the radio signal the projection vectors being time-shifted relative to one another by determined shift intervals of time; multiplying the received radio signal by the projection vectors and accumulating the results; interpolating the accumulating results to determine a peak time shift.
