SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BI-STATIC RADIO-BASED OBJECT LOCATION DETECTION

Abstract:

Bi-static radio-based object location detection can include determining, by a wireless device, a location of a remote wireless device; obtaining a ToF and an angle of arrival (AoA) of a reflected WWAN reference signal reflected by a remote object; and determining a location of the remote object based on the location of the remote wireless device, the ToF, and the AoA. In another example, a wireless device includes a wireless transceiver; a non-transitory computer-readable medium; and a processor communicatively coupled to the wireless transceiver and non-transitory computer-readable medium, the processor configured to determine a location of a remote wireless device; obtain a ToF and an angle of arrival (AoA) of a reflected WWAN reference signal reflected by a remote object; and determine a location of the remote object based on the location of the remote wireless device, the ToF, and the AoA.
