POSITIONING SYSTEM AND METHOD

A positioning system includes a target device and multiple base stations connected with the target device. The multiple base stations include a master base station and multiple slave base stations that include a first slave base station and a second slave base station and are serially connected based on a synchronization order. The master base station is connected with the first slave base station. The master base station transmits a first positioning information to the target device and transmits a synchronization message to the multiple slave base stations based on the synchronization order. Each of the slave base stations transmits a second positioning information to the target device. The target device obtains location information of the target device based on an inter-station delay, a base station location, a first time receiving the first positioning information, and a second time receiving the second positioning information.
