ABSTRACT:
A precise positioning method and system is disclosed for allowing an array of ground transmitters to self-survey their relative location at centimeter-level accuracy by transmitting, amongst the ground transmitters in the array, bi-directional ranging signals associated with a wideband code modulation with a chipping rate faster than 30 MHz.
