Abstract:
The present application relates to a system and a method for determining relative positions slave units along a stub bus with at least a power line and a ground line. Each slave unit is operable in different power modes, which are differentiated by effective resistances between the power and ground lines. A reference voltage potential drop is determined for each slave unit while the slave units are operating in a first power mode. A positioning voltage potential drop is determined for one or more slave units while a selected slave unit is operating in a second power mode. Relative positions of the slave units are determined based on the relative voltage potential drops obtained from the reference and positioning voltage potential drops.

Claim (Index 10):
The method according to  claim 8 , wherein the master unit comprises a current adjustable power source arranged to apply a predefined current across the power line and ground line,\n the method further comprising: the master unit, driving the predefined current on the power line during measuring the reference voltage potential drop and the positioning voltage potential drop.
