2 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 2 What’s the problem ? TWR as defined in the ranging subcommittee final report (0581r07) is vulnerable to timebase mismatch and thus crystal tolerances. We propose that the UWB PHY should support Symmetric Double Sided-Two Way Ranging (SDS-TWR).

3 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 3 “Straightforward TWR Model” according to 04-0581r07 Device ADevice B Two equations in two unknowns yield: * US Naval Observatory, Telstar Satellite, circa 1962 http://www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq/time/twoway.htm Unmatched detect-delays in the two devices may require one-time offset calibration. Unknown propagation delay Unknown clock offset Message 1 Message 2 Multiple measurements of t p and t o yield finer precision & accuracy, and allow frequency offset correction. Figure 1 Two-Way Time Transfer Model Offset between A and B is reflected here! What about drift?

4 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 4 Let’s analyze the calculation of the propagation delay round trip time measured with clock A Usually the reply time will be significant larger than the propagation delay. Thus round trip time and reply time will be almost equal! Example: t p =30ns, t reply =1ms -> t round =1.000060 ms reply time measured with clock B

5 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 5 What happens if there is a drift (difference in clock speed) between clock A and clock B? Assume +10 ppm for clock A and -10 ppm for clock B: +10 ppm -10 ppm tp=0.5*(1.000060e-3*(1+10e-6)-1e-3*(1-10e-6)) = 40e-9 Problem: Difference between large numbers (e.g. 1ms) with different accuracies (+10ns, -10 ns) has high inaccuracy! wrong number! big number measured with clock A big number measured with clock B

6 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 6 Effect of high inaccuracy after subtracting two large numbers measured with different clocks can be avoided by using Symmetric Double Sided-Two Way Ranging (SDS -TWR) Device A Device B unknown propagation delay reply time

7 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 7 Let’s analyze the calculation of the propagation delay for SDS -TWR Using the same example numbers as before yields: tp=0.25*(1.000060e-3*(1+10e-6)-1e-3*(1+10e-6)+1.000060e-3*(1-10e-6)-1e-3*(1-10e-6)) ->tp= 30e-9 correct number! two big numbers measured with the same timebase (clock A) two big numbers measured with the same timebase (clock B)

8 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 8 How many message are required for SDS-TWR? At least 3! Device A Device B Device A Device B these two messages can be combined into one

9 IEEE-15-05-0334-00-004a TG4a June 2005 Hach, NanotronSlide 9 Summary “Straightforward TWR” requires very low crystal tolerances << 10 ppm or precise phase tracking SDS-TWR is an enhancement on “Straightforward TWR” which eliminates the need of phase tracking SDS-TWR needs a minimum of only 3 messages SDS-TWR can work with standard tolerances (up to 40 ppm or more)
