METHOD, SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DETERMINING THE POSITION OF A MOVING OBJECT RELATIVE TO ANOTHER OBJECT
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for determining the position of a moving first object relative to another second object,
comprising the following method steps:



transmitting a first pulse signal S1 from a first transmitter (12) of the first object to a first receiver (22) of the second object, and returning the first pulse signal S1 from the first receiver (22) of the second object to the first transmitter (12) of the first object, wherein a first distance d1 between the first transmitter (12) and the first receiver (22) can be derived from a travel time Δt1 of the first pulse signal Si;
transmitting a second pulse signal S2 from a second transmitter (14) of the first object to the first receiver (22) and returning the second pulse signal S2 from the first receiver (22) of the second object to the second transmitter (14) of the first object, wherein a second distance d2 between the second transmitter (14) and the first receiver (22) can be derived from a travel time Δt2 of the second pulse signal S2;
forwarding the first distance d1 and/or the travel time Δt1 of the first pulse signal S1 and the second distance d2 and/or the travel time Δt2 of the second pulse signal S2 to a data processing module (30);
calculating a distance d and an angle β between the first object and the second object.
