Systems and methods for detecting spoofing attempts are disclosed. In one embodiment, a ground station system for detecting a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) spoof signal includes a receiver configured to receive data collected by a detection satellite that (1) is on a first orbit that is lower than a second orbit used by a GNSS satellite and (2) includes: a first antenna positioned to receive signals originating from a planetary surface, and a second antenna positioned to receive signals originating from the GNSS satellite on a higher orbit than the first orbit of the detection satellite. The ground station further includes one or more processors configured to calculate, using the time of arrival of the signal received at the first antenna and the position of the detection satellite determined based on the signal received at the second antenna, a geolocation of a source of the signal originating from a planetary surface.

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a position estimation entity, obtains first timing information that is associated with a first time-of-arrival (TOA) measurement of a first reference signal for positioning (RS-P) as communicated between a target user equipment (UE) and a base station with a first time basis, obtains second timing information that is associated with a second TOA measurement of a second RS-P as communicated between the target UE and a reference UE associated with a known location and having a second time basis that is different than the first time basis, determines a bias between the first time basis and the second time basis, and determines a position estimate of the target UE via a time differential of arrival (TDOA) positioning technique based at least in part upon the first timing information, the second timing information, and the bias.

Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating L1 UE-side filtering for mmW frequencies are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a user equipment includes configuring a filter coefficient for a serving beam. The example method also includes applying the filter coefficient to the serving beam to determine an updated filtered measurement result. The example method also includes reporting the updated filtered measurement result to a base station.

A method includes receiving a ground-truth motion indication from a measurement device. The ground-truth motion indication is a time series of locations and a corresponding indication of a motion state at each location of the time series of locations. The method also includes receiving a time series of detected motion states based on wireless signals communicated through a space over a time period by a wireless communication network comprising a plurality of wireless communication devices. The detected motion states for a time interval within the time series are compared to the ground-truth motion indication for the time interval within the time series to generate a time series of consistency scores. The consistency scores are processed to produce an aggregate motion-detection capability score at each location. The method also includes providing, for display as a graphical representation of motion-detection capability within the space, the aggregate motion-detection capability at each location.

In a multilateration system based on an absolute distance measurement and a multilateration method using the multilateration system, the multilateration system is configured to obtain spatial coordinates of an object moving in a space. The system includes a tracking unit having a plurality of tracking devices, and a control calculation part having a dead path estimation part and a tracking device position calculation part. The tracking devices are positioned differently with each other and each of the tracking devices measures a distance to the object. The dead path estimation part is configured to pre-estimate a dead path which is a distance between a measurement reference surface of each tracking device and a central position of each tracking device. The tracking device position calculation part is configured to calculate the central position of each tracking device via nonlinear optimization.

Methods for geolocation utilizing electronic distance measurement equipment. The methods select a small subset of available data that is most trustworthy, and then mathematically treats the subset of data (preferably bilateration or trilateration) to compute one or more new measured position candidates. One measured position candidate may be chosen among the measure position candidates based on confidence metrics, relative position geometry, and the comparison with history-based predicted position and its respective confidence metric. In a case where no measured position candidates of sufficient confidence are available, the predicted position is taken as the new position.

Device localization (e.g., ultra-wideband device localization) may be used to provide coordinated outputs and/or receive coordinated inputs using multiple devices. Providing coordinated outputs may include providing partial outputs using multiple devices, modifying an output of a device based on its position and/or orientation relative to another device, and the like. In some cases, each device of a set of multiple devices may provide a partial output, which combines with partial outputs of the remaining devices to produce a coordinated output.
