Abstract
A method for location of a beacon includes: executing R sequences, wherein R is a whole number equal to or greater than 2, each including reception by a first antenna network and a second antenna network of a signal originating from the beacon, wherein the signals of the R sequences are of different wavelengths; calculating a first estimation function for angles of arrival of the signal on the first antenna network and of a second estimation function for angles of arrival of the signal on the second antenna network; and executing a mutual correlation of the R first estimation functions and the R second estimation functions, for the respective determination of a first angle between the beacon and the first network, and of a second angle between the beacon and the second network.
