Abstract
Data is received characterizing a first signal and a second signal. The first signal and a function of the second signal is compared at a plurality of time-shifts to estimate a time-difference between the first signal and the second signal. The function of the second signal includes the second signal, a complex conjugate of the second signal, and a constant. The comparison is provided. At least one of receiving, comparing, and providing is performed by at least one processor of at least one computing system.
