Multipath Single-Anchor Positioning Method and Communication Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18158015 titled 'Multipath Single-Anchor Positioning Method and Communication Apparatus

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for positioning measurement in a wireless communication system. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The method involves receiving a positioning measurement reference signal from a reference node through multiple transmission paths.
  • The first positioning information is measured based on the received signal on one of the transmission paths.
  • The method then sends indication information and a second positioning measurement reference signal back to the reference node.
  • The indication information is used to indicate the specific transmission path on which the first positioning information was measured.
  • This allows the reference node to measure second positioning information on the same transmission path.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Wireless communication systems requiring accurate positioning measurements.
  • Location-based services that rely on precise positioning information.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices that need to determine their location in a wireless network.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Accurate positioning measurement in wireless communication systems with multiple transmission paths.
  • Ensuring that the reference node measures positioning information on the correct transmission path.
  • Providing a method for indicating the specific transmission path to the reference node.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accuracy in positioning measurements.
  • Enhanced performance of location-based services and IoT devices.
  • Efficient utilization of multiple transmission paths in wireless communication systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method includes receiving, from a reference node, a first positioning measurement reference signal transmitted through N transmission paths, where N is an integer greater than 1; measuring first positioning information based on the first positioning measurement reference signal on a first transmission path, where the first transmission path is one of the N transmission paths; and sending first indication information and a second positioning measurement reference signal to the reference node, where the first indication information is used to indicate the first transmission path, so that the reference node measures second positioning information on the first transmission path.
