    Abstract: A signal determination device includes an identification unit which identifies a reference signal that serves as a reference to identify an abnormal signal among a plurality of signals detected in the communication network, a time interval estimation unit which estimates a time interval of signals that are to be input in series to the communication network based on detection timing of the plurality of signals detected in the communication network, a timing estimation unit which estimates timing at which a plurality of signals is to be detected in the communication network after the reference signal, and a determination unit which determines whether each of the plurality of signals detected in the communication network after the reference signal is a normal signal based on the timing estimated by the timing estimation unit and detection timing of the plurality of signals detected in the communication network after the reference signal.

    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for synchronizing clocks and determining a range distance between two clocks using one or more timing signals that are communicated between the clocks. The determination can be made to also account for movement between the clocks such as if the clocks are converging (i.e., the distance between them is decreasing over time) or diverging (i., the distance between the clocks is increasing over time.) The systems and methods can utilize timing signals transmitted between two clocks that are synchronizing with another using the precision time protocol. In order to account for the increasing or decreasing distance between the clocks, the systems and methods can utilize Doppler shift data taken between the clocks to apply a correction factor to the timing signals. The timing signals and correction factor can be utilized to also determine a range distance between the clocks.

    Abstract: [Object] To provide innovation with respect to which synchronization signal a communication device uses to conduct a synchronization process.
    [Solution] Provided is a communication device including: a selection unit configured to select a synchronization signal from respective synchronization signals received from two or more other devices on a basis of origin information that is acquired by communication with another device and that indicates an origin of a synchronization signal used for acquisition of synchronization timing in the other device; and a synchronization processing unit configured to acquire synchronization timing using the synchronization signal selected by the selection unit.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for transmitting an identifier using visible light communication (VLC) and for generating a plurality of identifiers for transmission using VLC. Input identifying an illumination factor associated with a light source is received. A first set of modulation parameters is modified for transmitting the identifier using VLC. The first set of modulation parameters is modified based on the illumination factor. A signal, in which the identifier is encoded, is applied to the light source. The signal is applied according to the first set of modulation parameters. Another method includes identifying a number of light transmitting devices, generating a plurality of identifiers based on the identified number of light transmitting devices, storing the generated identifiers, determining a plurality of cyclic shifts for each identifier in the plurality of identifiers, and removing identifiers from the plurality of identifiers that match the identified cyclic shifts.
