A device for measuring a distance, according to one embodiment of the present invention, includes a transceiver configured to transmit, to another device, a signal and receive, from the another device, another signal according to the signal, and a controller configured to determine a first interval based on the signal and the another signal and determine a distance between the device and the another device based on the first interval, a second interval regarding the another device, and a delay regarding an internal circuit of the device.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting data by a transmission node in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting, to a base station, a channel information request, transmitting, to the base station, a data packet based on a first channel information value received in response to the transmitted channel information request, and awaiting reception of a response packet indicating reception of the data packet from the base station, if the reception of the response packet fails during a predetermined time interval, detecting an energy level of a signal received in the predetermined time interval, and reconfiguring one of a transmitting method for the response packet and a transmitting method for a next data packet based on the detected energy level.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Embodiments of the present invention provide a device and a method for estimating a position between wireless apparatuses using a signal transmitted and received between wireless apparatuses in a wireless communication system. A device of a first wireless apparatus for estimating a position comprises: a transceiver for transmitting and receiving a signal to and from a second wireless apparatus; and a position estimator for estimating a position of the second wireless apparatus using a signal transmitted and received through the transceiver. The position estimator comprises a range estimator for estimating the distance between the first wireless apparatus and the second wireless apparatus on the basis of a first time difference from a time point at which a request range packet is transmitted to the second wireless apparatus to a time point at which the reception of a response range packet transmitted from the second wireless apparatus is sensed and a second time difference from a time point at which the reception of the required range packet is sensed by the second wireless apparatus to a time point at which the response range packet is transmitted.
