Abstract
An apparatus comprising a plurality of receivers, a controller and memory storing instructions executable by the controller, the instructions, when executed by the controller causing the controller to receive data of signals received via the receivers as a signal from a transmitter, to segment the received data into a plurality of consecutive segments, to determine if consecutive data segments have changed in a manner indicative of movement of the transmitter and to, based on the determination, determine an angle of arrival of the signal based on data segments that have solely been received before or that have solely been received after a detected change in consecutive data segments indicative of movement of the transmitter or that have been received between two detected changes in consecutive data segments indicative of movement of the transmitter.
