Abstract
A reception device for receiving a radio signal, designed to estimate a time of arrival of the radio signal. The reception device includes a reception module designed to receive the radio signal, and a detection module configured so as to: measure a current supplied by an electric power source to the reception module, detect a current peak measured by the detection module, the current peak being caused by the reception of the radio signal by the reception module, and determine the time of arrival of the radio signal on the basis of the time of detection of the detected current peak.
