==FACILITATING TIME-ALIGNED MEASUREMENTS FOR USER EQUIPMENTS (UES) AND BASE STATIONS FOR POSITIONING - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18253882 titled 'FACILITATING TIME-ALIGNED MEASUREMENTS FOR USER EQUIPMENTS (UES) AND BASE STATIONS FOR POSITIONING

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes techniques for communication using a location server and network nodes. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

* The location server sends a request to a network node, specifying certain time instances when the node should perform and report positioning measurements of periodic signals transmitted by another network node.
* The network node receives the request and sends a measurement report back to the location server, including the positioning measurements of the periodic signals during the specified time instances.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Location-based services: The techniques can be used to improve the accuracy and reliability of location-based services by obtaining precise positioning measurements from network nodes.
* Network optimization: By collecting positioning measurements from multiple network nodes, the location server can analyze and optimize the network performance and coverage.
* Asset tracking: The technology can be applied to track the location of assets in real-time, enabling efficient management and monitoring.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Inaccurate positioning measurements: By specifying the time instances for positioning measurements, the techniques ensure that the network nodes provide accurate and timely data, reducing errors in location estimation.
* Communication efficiency: The location server can request measurements only during specific time instances, reducing unnecessary communication and optimizing network resources.

Benefits of this technology:

* Improved location accuracy: By obtaining precise positioning measurements from network nodes, the techniques enhance the accuracy of location-based services and asset tracking.
* Efficient network utilization: The communication between the location server and network nodes is optimized, reducing unnecessary data exchange and improving overall network efficiency.
* Real-time monitoring: The techniques enable real-time monitoring of assets or devices by collecting and analyzing positioning measurements at specific time instances.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Disclosed are techniques for communication. In an aspect, a location server transmits a first request to at least a first network node, the first request including at least a first set of parameters indicating one or more first time instances during which the first network node is expected to perform and report one or more first positioning measurements of periodic positioning reference signals transmitted by a second network node during a plurality of periodic time instances, the plurality of periodic time instances including the one or more first time instances, and receives a first measurement report from the first network node, the first measurement report including the one or more first positioning measurements of the periodic positioning reference signals transmitted by the second network node during the one or more first time instances.
