==UE POSITIONING SIGNAL TRANSMISSION DURING UNCONNECTED OR INACTIVE STATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17773905 titled 'UE POSITIONING SIGNAL TRANSMISSION DURING UNCONNECTED OR INACTIVE STATE

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a method for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) for positioning in a communication network. The method involves obtaining a set of SRS transmission parameters at a user equipment (UE) and transmitting the SRS for positioning from the UE while it is in an unconnected or inactive state.

* The method is used for transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) for positioning.
* The SRS transmission parameters are obtained by the user equipment (UE).
* The SRS for positioning is transmitted from the UE while it is in an unconnected or inactive state.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology can have various potential applications, including:

* Location-based services: The SRS for positioning can be used to determine the location of the user equipment, enabling location-based services such as navigation, asset tracking, and emergency services.
* Network optimization: The SRS can provide valuable information about the radio channel quality, which can be used for network optimization and resource allocation.
* Indoor positioning: The SRS can be utilized for indoor positioning systems, enabling accurate location tracking within buildings or other enclosed spaces.

== Problems Solved ==
This technology addresses the following problems:

* Limited positioning accuracy: Traditional positioning methods may have limited accuracy, especially in challenging environments like urban areas or indoors. The SRS for positioning provides a more accurate and reliable method for determining the location of the user equipment.
* Inefficient resource utilization: Transmitting the SRS while the UE is in an unconnected or inactive state allows for more efficient use of network resources, as the UE can still provide positioning information without being fully connected to the network.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include:

* Improved positioning accuracy: The SRS for positioning enables more accurate and reliable location determination, which is crucial for various applications such as navigation or emergency services.
* Efficient resource utilization: By transmitting the SRS while the UE is in an unconnected or inactive state, network resources are utilized more efficiently, leading to improved overall network performance.
* Enhanced user experience: The accurate positioning provided by the SRS can enhance user experience by enabling location-based services and improving the performance of applications that rely on location information.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A method of transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) for positioning includes: obtaining, at a user equipment (UE), a plurality of SRS transmission parameters; and transmitting SRS for positioning from the UE in accordance with the plurality of SRS transmission parameters while the UE is in an unconnected state, relative to a communication network, or an inactive state.
