POSITIONING SIGNAL SENDING METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18604445 titled 'POSITIONING SIGNAL SENDING METHOD AND APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a method and apparatus for sending a positioning signal. The method involves generating a signal with specific edge durations and sending it.
- The first signal has a shorter rising edge duration compared to the falling edge duration.
- The rising edge duration matches that of the main lobe waveform of the signal.
- The shorter rising time of the main lobe waveform helps in distinguishing paths or identifying the first arrival path of a received signal.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Generation of a signal with specific edge durations for improved positioning.
- Utilization of shorter rising time in the main lobe waveform for better path identification.
- Enhanced ability to distinguish between adjacent paths in signal reception.
Potential Applications: The technology can be applied in:

- Surveillance systems
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior art related to this technology in signal processing, radar systems, and communication protocols.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in signal processing techniques and waveform analysis for improved positioning accuracy.
Questions about Positioning Signal Sending Method and Apparatus: 1. How does the shorter rising time in the main lobe waveform contribute to better path identification? 2. What are the specific edge durations used in the generation of the positioning signal?
Original Abstract Submitted
A positioning signal sending method and apparatus are provided. A first signal is generated, where duration of a first rising edge of the first signal is less than duration of a first falling edge, the duration of the first rising edge is duration of a rising edge of a main lobe waveform of the first signal, and the duration of the first falling edge is duration of a falling edge of the main lobe waveform of the first signal; and the first signal is sent. In embodiments of this application, rising time of a main lobe waveform of a signal generated is short, and shorter rising time of the main lobe waveform is more conducive to distinguishing two adjacent paths or identifying a first arrival path of a received signal.
