Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A receiver for determining a time measure depending on a time of arrival of a pulse signal having a sequence of pulses from a transmitter includes an integrator having a variable and controllable integration window, extending from a starting point to an integrator sampling point, an integrator controller for controlling the integration window in a time-successive way so that the sampling points of successive integration windows are changed by a time delay from a current integration window to a later integration window, wherein the time delay is smaller than half of the integration window, and an output processor for generating the time measure as an indication indicating which later integration window has a sampled integrator value exceeding a threshold or being larger than a sampled integrator value for a timely preceding or timely succeeding integration window.
