Applying IEEE 1588 to packet radio trilateration
John D MacKay, Ron Murdock, Gregory Hall · 2011
There are several applications for position location that require a solution that minimizes size and power. In the case of planetary navigation, these constraints are critical due to the cost of deployment. This paper describes the analysis, design, and prototyping of a system that takes advantage of a common time-base provided by IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) to use minimal processing algorithms and processing resources.
