Abstract
A system and method are provided for timing measurement in a wireless network to determine a location of a station (STA). A channel stability is determined for a channel between an initiating station (ISTA) and a first responding station (RSTA). A request for a first timing-measurement exchange is sent from the ISTA and the first RSTA. Parameters are negotiated for the first timing-measurement exchange based on the determined channel stability, and then the timing-measurement exchange is performed to generate a first set of times. This process is then repeated for another timing-measurement exchange between the ISTA and a second RSTA to generate a second set of times. A location of the ISTA is determined based on the first and the second sets of times.
