Abstract
A communication device and a corresponding device operating method include an ultra-wideband (UWB) communication unit enabling UWB communication with at least one external communication device, and a processing unit performing a ranging session between the communication device and the external communication device. The ranging session includes one or more distance measurements based on messages exchanged between the communication device and the external communication device. The messages are exchanged through the UWB communication unit. The device also includes a prioritization unit configured to prioritize the ranging session using a synchronization indicator associated with the ranging session.
