Zusammenfassung:An apparatus having a first antenna; a second antenna; and a controller coupled to the first and second antennas, wherein the controller is configured to determine a first ranging measurement between the first antenna and a device antenna on a device; determine a second ranging measurement between the second antenna and the device antenna; and determine an orientation and position of the apparatus relative to the device by combining the first and second ranging measurements. A method for implementing the orientation and position process is also disclosed herein.
