1. A method for determining an actual pulse position in a signal, said signal comprising a plurality of successive frames, wherein each frame has length L and contains one pulse with width W, a number of discrete possible pulse positions being considered within in each frame which is at least L/W, the method comprising the steps of:

  • a) sampling said signal at a sampling rate below L/W with a varying sampling phase such that the whole frame length L is covered, b) obtaining a set of samples with at least one at each of the possible pulse positions, c) correlating said set of samples with a set of one or more predetermined values, and d) determining said actual pulse position from said correlation.
