    摘要: In accordance with a first aspect of the present disclosure, a communication device (500) is provided, comprising: a plurality of antennas (502, 504) configured to receive an ultra-wideband signal; a processing unit (508) configured to determine an angle of arrival, AoA, of the ultra-wideband signal, wherein said AoA is based on a phase difference of arrival, PDoA, derived from the ultra-wideband signal; a polarization angle estimation unit (506) configured to estimate a polarization angle of the ultra-wideband signal; wherein the processing unit is further configured to determine the AoA of the ultra-wideband signal using the polarization angle estimated by the polarization angle estimation unit. In accordance with a second aspect of the present disclosure, a corresponding method of operating a communication device is conceived. In accordance with a third aspect of the present disclosure, a computer program is provided for carrying out said method.
