This method includes two steps, one is DP energy block detection, and the other is the refined DP estimation. A closed form for performance analysis is proposed, and system parameters that affect estimation performance are studied with analytical and numerical methods. The results compared with traditional ranging methods also show that this method can achieve relative high performance under l
