ON-DEMAND POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL SELECTION FOR DOUBLE DIFFERENCE POSITIONING SCHEMES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18274665 titled 'ON-DEMAND POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL SELECTION FOR DOUBLE DIFFERENCE POSITIONING SCHEMES

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes techniques for configuring on-demand positioning reference signal (PRS) resources in double difference (DD) positioning methods.

  • Receiving positioning reference signal measurement values from a target user equipment and at least one reference node.
  • Determining on-demand positioning reference signals based on signal identification information associated with each measurement value.
  • Sending an indication of the on-demand positioning reference signals to the target user equipment, the reference node, or both.

Potential Applications

  • Location-based services
  • Navigation systems
  • Asset tracking

Problems Solved

  • Efficient allocation of PRS resources
  • Improved accuracy in positioning methods

Benefits

  • Enhanced positioning accuracy
  • Reduced resource wastage
  • Improved user experience


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques are provided for configuring on-demand positioning reference signal (PRS) resources in double difference (DD) positioning methods. An example method for providing an on-demand positioning reference signal request includes receiving a plurality of positioning reference signal measurement values from a target user equipment and at least one reference node, determining one or more on-demand positioning reference signals based at least in part on signal identification information associated with each of the plurality of positioning reference signal measurement values, and sending an indication of the one or more on-demand positioning reference signals to either of the target user equipment, the at least one reference node, or both.
