SHORT RANGE DIGITAL RADIO LOCATION DETERMINATION TO FACILITATE PETROLEUM TRANSPORT

A method may include the following steps: determining, based on timing measurements between a first digital radio communication device (DRCD) node and at least a second DRCD node, a distance between the first DRCD disposed on a tanker and the second DRCD disposed about a loading/unloading facility;...

Zusammenfassung:	A method may include the following steps: determining, based on timing measurements between a first digital radio communication device (DRCD) node and at least a second DRCD node, a distance between the first DRCD disposed on a tanker and the second DRCD disposed about a loading/unloading facility; and facilitating, in response to determining a position based on the timing measurements, fluid payload loading/unloading of the tanker at the loading/unloading facility. La présente invention concerne un procédé qui peut comprendre les étapes suivantes : déterminer, sur la base de mesures de synchronisation entre un premier nœud de dispositif de communication à radio numérique (DRCD) et au moins un deuxième nœud DRCD, une distance entre le premier DRCD disposé sur un pétrolier et le second DRCD disposé sur un site de chargement/déchargement; et favoriser, en réponse à la détermination de la position basée sur les mesures de synchronisation, le chargement/déchargement de charge utile de fluide du pétrolier dans le site de chargement/déchargement.
