Title:
GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM AND ULTRA WIDE BAND UNIVERSAL POSITIONING NODE CONSELLATION INTEGRATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/031972
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
Gaining a time signal from a radio signal such as GPS, an ultra-wide band constellation can be synchronized. While the entirety of the constellation is synchronized to a nanosecond level of accuracy, local subsets of ultra-wide band nodes can establish even finer degrees of synchronization resulting in more accurate positional determination. These synchronization signals can be propagated to other nodes that are denied or incapable of receiving synchronizing radio (GPS) signals. Moreover, in cases in which a plurality of UPN nodes is unavailable to accurately determine an objects position, available UPN nodes can be combined with GPS pseudo ranges to achieve positional determination.
