Abstract
The present disclosure provides a ranging method by using a first signal transmitted by a first device, and a second signal generated and transmitted by a target device in response to the first signal. The ranging method calculates the distance between the target device and a second device being in communication with the first and target devices, by using: a first time interval from a point in time of first device's transmitting the first signal to a point of receiving first part of the second signal; a second time interval from a point of the second device's receiving the first signal to a point receiving the first part of the second signal; and a delay time interval from a point of the target device's receiving the first signal to a start time of the second signal and a duration of the first part of the second signal.
