Abstract
A method of determining a position of a mobile telecommunication device () which transmits a signal (S) to base stations (, . . . ) connected by a data link () comprises the steps of: correlating the received signal (S) and a reference signal (S') so as to produce a correlation for each base station, detecting a maximum in each correlation, which maximum is indicative of a time of arrival of the signal (S) at the respective base station, and using the respective times of arrival and the distances (D, D, . . . ) derived therefrom to derive a location of the mobile telecommunication device. The method uses receivers (, . . . ) coupled to a data network (), each receiver (, . . . ) deriving the reference signal (S′) from the received signal (S). Each base station may select, if it receives multiple reference signals, the reference signal (S′) having the highest quality.
