Abstract:
Communication devices and corresponding methods for RF-based communication and position determination are disclosed. An initiator communication device ( 1 ) comprises an antenna unit ( 10 ) configured to transmit and receive RF signals, a beamforming unit ( 11 ) configured to perform beamforming and to control the antenna unit to transmit and/or receive RF signals using one or more selected beams, a control unit ( 12 ) configured to control the beamforming unit ( 11 ) in a training phase to perform beamforming for determining an initiator line of sight (LOS), beam to a responder communication device ( 2 ), and a processing unit ( 13 ) configured to determine the initiator LOS beam and/or initiator angular information of the initiator LOS beam and to determine the position of said communication device using the determined initiator LOS beam and/or initiator angular information in a measurement phase.

Claim (Index 12):
The communication device as claimed in  claim 11 ,\n wherein the control unit is configured to control the beamforming unit and the antenna unit to embed the time information and/or angular information in FTM frames and/or in one or more training subfields appended to FTM frames of exchanged RF signals.
