Abstract

A wireless ranging system () estimates a distance () between wireless devices () by calibrating the devices through exchanging calibration packets () to adjust transceiver settings for performing phase measurements at the wireless devices, and then transmitting a measurement packet () from a first wireless device to a second wireless device to synchronize the first and second wireless devices and to perform a two-way IQ data capture sequence at different carrier frequencies during processing of the measurement packet so that the first and second wireless devices each measure phase values for each of the plurality of different carrier frequencies, where the phase values at each of the first and second wireless devices are processed to generate a combined phase offset vector which is processed to determine a first estimated distance between the first and second wireless devices.
