METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING THE RELATIVE POSITION OF RADIO DEVICES

Abstract

A method for determining the relative position of radio devices is provided. The method comprises: initiating, by means of a first radio device, a measurement of respective distances between the first radio device, a second radio device, and at least a third radio device; transmitting radio signals with a time delay by means of the first radio device, the second radio device, and the third radio device; receiving each of the time-delayed transmitted radio signals by means of the respective other two radio devices; determining a first distance between the first radio device and the second radio device, a second distance between the first radio device and the third radio device, and a third distance between the second radio device and the third radio device based on the received radio signals;and determining a first angle of incidence between the first radio device and the second radio device based on the first distance, the second distance and the third distance, wherein the determination of the relative position of the radio devices is based exclusively on the measurement initiated by means of the first radio device, in particular without initiating additional measurements by means of the second radio device and / or the third radio device.
