Abstract: A processing module for a receiver device. The processor module comprises a channel estimate generation component arranged to output channel estimate information for a received signal, and a timestamping module arranged to determine a ToA measurement for a marker within a packet of the received signal based at least partly on the channel estimate information for the received signal generated by the channel estimate generation component. The channel estimate generation component comprises a validation component arranged to derive a validation pattern for the packet within the received signal for which a ToA measurement is to be determined, identify a section of the packet containing a validation sequence, and perform cross-correlation between at least a part of the validation sequence within the packet and at least a part of the generated validation pattern to generate channel estimate validation information.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to circuits, apparatuses and methods for generating communication signals resistant to early-detect-late-commit attacks. An example embodiment, a plurality of data symbols is generated that includes first and second data symbols. A communication signal is generated that is decodable according to a mapping of the first and second data symbols to respective first and second waveforms. The first waveform has a leading edge that is indicative of the first waveform, and second waveform has a second leading edge that is indicative of the second waveform. In generating the communication signal, a first portion of the communication signal is modulated according to the first waveform for the first data symbol. A second portion of the communication signal is modulated, for the second data symbol, according to a modified second waveform having a leading edge that is indicative of the first waveform.

Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) signal can be produced with an RF frequency that is responsive to a frequency reference (FREF) clock. An inductive-capacitive (LC) tank oscillator circuit can generate the RF signal. A digital to time converter (DTC) circuit can operate, for a first edge of the FREF clock, in a baseline mode that has a first delay, and for a subsequent edge of the FREF clock, in a delay mode that introduces a second delay value to the FREF clock. A controller circuit can enable the LC-tank oscillator circuit in response to a first edge of the FREF clock and to set or increase the second delay value of the delay mode as a function of the frequency of the RF signal. A phase detector circuit can detect, for the subsequent edge of the FREF clock, a phase difference between the FREF clock and the RF signal.
