Determination of the difference between the arrival times of a chaotic radio pulse at two receivers based on the cross-correlation of of the pulse envelopes

The problem of positioning with the use of ultra-wideband chaotic radio pulses is considered. A method for determination of the difference of signal arrival times based on the cross-correlation function of the envelope of chaotic radio pulses is proposed and studied. It is demonstrated that this met...

Summary:The problem of positioning with the use of ultra-wideband chaotic radio pulses is considered. A method for determination of the difference of signal arrival times based on the cross-correlation function of the envelope of chaotic radio pulses is proposed and studied. It is demonstrated that this method provides an error of estimation of the difference of signal arrival times that is inverse proportional to the frequency band of the radio-pulse envelope. It is found that the noise stability of the method is improved with as the suration of the chaotic radio pulse increases.
