Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for ranging. The method includes receiving by a ranging apparatus a first ranging signal transmitted from a first remote apparatus. The first ranging signal includes a first digital sequence that is a logic combination of a first group of co-prime component codes having co-prime cycle lengths. Further, the method includes detecting first component shifts of the first digital sequence corresponding to the first group of co-prime component codes, and determining a first ranging code shift of the first digital sequence based on the first component shifts.
