Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method of Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) locating an emitter that emits a signal by a mobile receiver. A first measurement of the signal is performed at a first location, thereby obtaining first measurement results. A second measurement of the signal is performed at a second location, thereby obtaining second measurement results. A third measurement of the signal is performed at a third location, thereby obtaining third measurement results. The first measurement results, the second measurement results and the third measurement results are processed, thereby determining the location of the emitter. At least one of the second location and the third location is determined based on a reception range. Further, a locating system is described.

Abstract: A method for synchronizing to a CDMA-signal that contains a pilot sequence, overlaid with data sequences, comprises the following process steps: correlating the total signal consisting of the transmitted pilot sequence and transmitted data sequences with a reference pilot sequence; subtracting the correlation result time-delayed by one or more symbol durations of the pilot sequence from the current correlation result in order to suppress the pilot sequence and subsequent incoherent averaging, and determining the minimum.
