Zusammenfassung:A method and an apparatus establish a distance as well as to a vehicle. In the method for establishing a distance between a vehicle and an infrastructure device, at least two vehicle-mounted reception devices receive a signal transmitted by the infrastructure device. Each of the vehicle-mounted reception devices contains at least two antenna elements.
