Abstract

The invention relates to a method and device for estimating angle information () of a received ultra-wideband wireless signal. Upon reception of a wireless signal emitted from a transmitting device () with known sounding sequence, the receiving device () estimates the channel impulse response (CIR), selects a portion of the channel impulse response (CIR), and estimates angle information () given the angle-dependent antenna transfer functions of either the transmitting device (), the receiving device (), or both. For this, the selected portion of the channel impulse response of the signal is fed into a neural network () which outputs an angle information probability distribution for the ultra-wideband wireless signal ().
