Abstract
A device for determining a time of arrival of a receive sequence in a receiver includes a correlation for determining a correlation value sequence from a correlation of the receive sequence with a transmit sequence, wherein the correlation sequence includes a peak shape having a main maximum and at least one local side maximum. The device further includes a processor to determine a point of the correlation sequence which lies within an interval which is on the one side bounded by the local side maximum and on the other side by the peak shape, and which is implemented to determine the time of arrival depending on the point.
