During the search on a DME ground station, a time of arrival of the reply pulse is calculated. For this time estimate, the relative speed between DME ground station and device is calculated. The time delay for the subsequent pulse is linearly derived from the previously measured delay. For the static setting, the relative speed is assumed to be equal zero; the time delay for the subsequent pulse is thus calculated from the mean of previous time delays.
