Abstract
A system, method, apparatus, means, and computer program code for improving accuracy of radio timing measurements. According to some embodiments, a wireless terminal or other wireless device can make adjustments to a measurement made from a radio transmission source by adjusting timing measurements using a weighted average and/or synchronizing its timing to the timing of this or some other radio transmission source. The adjusted measurements can be obtained for times other than when the original measurements are made. Measurements for multiple radio transmission sources can then be adjusted to a common time wherein adjustment errors due to unknown timing drift in the radio sources and wireless terminal and Doppler errors due to unknown relative velocities can be reduced or eliminated.
