Unfortunately, there is no good solution for this. Either you rely on the time settings of the sender or on the time needed to transmit the data and on the time the data gets transmitted.
- wbl 8y agoA radio receiver with a GPS time base doesnt seem that tricky.
- lmz 8y agoIf we assume the sender is not malicious, a properly configured NTP client ("the time settings of the sender") would probably suffice. If the sender is malicious, unless you somehow make the "signal + timestamp" from the receiver non-modifiable from the receiver to the service, you've lost anyway.
- toomuchtodo 8y agoBecause MLAT relies on multiple devices, it should be straightforward to identify and blacklist a sender tampering with timing data.
