Zusammenfassung:	A method and measuring station to determine the geo-location of a wanted target station in the presence of rogue responder stations are disclosed. One method includes: transmitting a packet with a fictitious address not corresponding to the wanted target station address; transmitting a packet with the wanted target station address; determining at least one of: a first difference between a round trip time (RTT) associated with a response packet from a responder station and an RTT associated with a response packet from the wanted target station; and a second difference between a time of arrival (TOA) associated with the responder station's response packet and a TOA associated with the wanted target station's response packet; and distinguishing between the response from the responder station and the response from the wanted target station based on at least at least one of the first difference and the second difference.
