Method and Device for the Position Determination of Objects in Road Traffic, Based on Communication Signals, and Use of the Device
First Claim
1. A method for communication signal-based position determination of objects in road traffic, comprising the steps of;
- transmitting wirelessly at least one data-transporting communication signal by at least one sender, wherein the at least one communication signal is reflected at least proportionally as a reflection signal at at least one object, receiving the at least one communication signal and the reflection signal by a receiver, and wherein the receiver determining its own position and a location of the at least one sender, and determining a propagation time difference between the communication signal and the reflection signal by the receiver.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the communication signal-based position determination of objects in road traffic, in which at least one data transporting communication signal is wirelessly transmitted from at least one sender (217, 218, 219, 220, 221, 34) and is reflected at least proportionally as a reflection signal on at least one object (211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 35), wherein the at least one communication signal and the reflection signal are received by a receiver (222, 33), and wherein the of at least one sender (217, 218, 219, 220, 221, 34). The method is characterized in that a propagation time difference of the communication signal and the reflection signal is determined by the received (222, 33). The invention further relates to a corresponding device (100) and to the use thereof.
