USER EQUIPMENT (UE) POSITIONING WITH FREQUENCY DOMAIN WINDOWING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17809107 titled 'USER EQUIPMENT (UE) POSITIONING WITH FREQUENCY DOMAIN WINDOWING
Simplified Explanation
Abstract
The patent application describes techniques for wireless communication. It introduces a method for a user equipment (UE) to process positioning reference signals (PRS) received from a network node over a multipath channel. The UE applies multiple PRS processing windows to the PRS resource, calculates channel estimates based on these windows, and determines positioning measurements using these estimates.
Explanation
- User equipment (UE) applies multiple PRS processing windows to a PRS resource received from a network node.
- The UE calculates multiple channel estimates for the PRS resource based on the PRS processing windows.
- The UE determines multiple positioning measurements of the PRS resource based on the channel estimates.
Potential Applications
- Wireless communication systems
- Mobile networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Location-based services
- Navigation systems
Problems Solved
- Multipath channels can cause signal degradation and inaccuracies in wireless communication systems.
- Accurate positioning measurements are crucial for various applications, such as navigation and location-based services.
- This patent application proposes a method to improve the accuracy of positioning measurements by applying multiple PRS processing windows and calculating channel estimates.
Benefits
- Improved accuracy of positioning measurements in wireless communication systems.
- Enhanced performance of location-based services and navigation systems.
- More reliable and efficient communication for IoT devices.
- Better user experience in mobile networks.
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) applies a plurality of positioning reference signal (PRS) processing windows to a PRS resource received from a network node over a multipath channel, determines a plurality of channel estimates for the PRS resource based on the plurality of PRS processing windows, and determines a plurality of positioning measurements of the PRS resource based on the plurality of channel estimates.
