SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR POSITIONING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18353879 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR POSITIONING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system and method for positioning using a first User Equipment (UE) and a second UE. The method involves the first UE transmitting a first Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) transmission, followed immediately by a duplicate of a symbol of the first PRS transmission. This duplicate and the first PRS transmission are in the same slot as a second PRS transmission transmitted by the second UE. The second UE also transmits a duplicate of a symbol of the second PRS transmission immediately before the second PRS transmission.

  • The method involves transmitting a duplicate symbol of a PRS transmission in the same slot as another PRS transmission.
  • The duplicate symbol is transmitted immediately before the corresponding PRS transmission.
  • The method is performed by two User Equipments (UEs).
  • The PRS transmissions are multiplexed in time.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Improved positioning accuracy in wireless communication systems.
  • Enhanced localization capabilities for mobile devices.
  • Efficient use of PRS transmissions for positioning purposes.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Inaccurate positioning due to interference or signal degradation.
  • Limited localization capabilities of mobile devices.
  • Inefficient use of PRS transmissions for positioning.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accuracy and reliability of positioning in wireless communication systems.
  • Enhanced localization capabilities for various applications such as navigation, asset tracking, and location-based services.
  • Optimal utilization of PRS transmissions, leading to improved efficiency in positioning.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system and a method are disclosed for positioning. In some embodiments, the method includes transmitting, by a first User Equipment (UE): a first Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) transmission, and, immediately preceding the first PRS transmission, a duplicate of a symbol of the first PRS transmission, the duplicate and the first PRS transmission being in a same slot as: a second PRS transmission, multiplexed in time with the first PRS transmission, transmitted by a second UE, and, immediately preceding the second PRS transmission, a duplicate, of a symbol of the second PRS transmission, transmitted by the second UE.
