Ranging and Angulating
Depending on the physical technology used, at least one and often some combination of ranging and/or angulating methods are used to determine location:
- Angle of arrival (AoA)
- Line-of-sight (LoS)
- Time of arrival (ToA)
- Multilateration (Time difference of arrival) (TDoA)
- Time-of-flight (ToF)
- Two-way ranging (TWR) according to Nanotron’s patents
- Symmetrical Double Sided – Two Way Ranging (SDS-TWR)
- Near-field electromagnetic ranging (NFER)

Famous quotes containing the word ranging:
“For the rest, whatever we have got has been by infinite labour, and search, and ranging through every corner of nature; the difference is that instead of dirt and poison, we have rather chosen to fill our hives with honey and wax, thus furnishing mankind with the two noblest of things, which are sweetness and light.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
