  • Angle of arrival correlation using normalized phase
    Patent number: 11300674
    Abstract: A method for automatically correlating radio wave pulses includes deterring a first normalized phase shift that corresponds to a first radio wave pulse. The method further includes determining a second normalized phase shift that corresponds to a second radio wave pulse. The method further includes determining the first normalized first normalized phase shift is equal to the second normalized phase shift. The method further includes in response to determining the first normalized phase shift is equal to the second normalized phase shift, correlating the first radio wave pulse and the second radio wave pulse as originating from a same radio wave transmitter. The method further includes transmitting a signal indicative of the first radio wave pulse and the second radio wave pulse as originating from the same radio wave transmitter through a circuit.
