  • Publication number: 20250110232
    Abstract: Techniques related to measuring a time-of-flight (ToF), comprising switching a first measuring station to a main operating mode, transmitting, by the first measuring station, a first ToF packet to a remote device, switching the first measuring station to a receive mode to receive a first ToF response packet from the remote device, receiving, by the first measuring station, the first ToF response packet, determining, a time interval between transmitting of the first ToF packet and receiving the first ToF response packet, receiving a plurality of time intervals from one or more other measuring stations, determining a ToF measurement based on the first time interval and the plurality of time intervals, switching the first measuring station to a secondary operating mode, and transmitting to a second measuring station, an indication to switch to the main operating mode.
