SIDELINK POSITIONING PROTOCOL (SLPP) PROCEDURES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18366472 titled 'SIDELINK POSITIONING PROTOCOL (SLPP) PROCEDURES

Simplified Explanation

In some implementations, a user equipment (UE) may exchange a plurality of sidelink (SL) positioning protocol (SLPP) messages with other UEs in a plurality of UEs, where the plurality of SLPP messages are exchanged via direct wireless SL communications. At least one message of the plurality of SLPP messages may comprise a Request Capabilities message, a Provide Capabilities message, a Request Assistance Data message, a Provide Assistance Data message, a Request Location Information message, or a Provide Location Information message. The UE may perform the positioning based, at least in part, on the plurality of SLPP messages. The UE may further exchange SLPP messages with a location server (e.g. LMF) which may assist the UE to perform the positioning and may enable the location server to obtain location results for the plurality of UEs. SLPP procedures may be defined to manage the SL positioning.

  • User equipment (UE) exchanges SLPP messages with other UEs via direct wireless SL communications.
  • SLPP messages include Request Capabilities, Provide Capabilities, Request Assistance Data, Provide Assistance Data, Request Location Information, or Provide Location Information messages.
  • UE performs positioning based on the exchanged SLPP messages.
  • UE may exchange SLPP messages with a location server to assist in positioning and obtain location results for multiple UEs.
  • SLPP procedures are defined to manage SL positioning.
      1. Potential Applications

- Location-based services - Emergency services - Asset tracking

      1. Problems Solved

- Efficient and accurate positioning of user equipment - Facilitating communication and collaboration between UEs for positioning

      1. Benefits

- Improved accuracy in positioning - Enhanced communication capabilities for UEs - Efficient management of SL positioning protocols


Original Abstract Submitted

In some implementations, a user equipment (UE) may exchange a plurality of sidelink (SL) positioning protocol (SLPP) messages with other UEs in a plurality of UEs, where the plurality of SLPP messages are exchanged via direct wireless SL communications. At least one message of the plurality of SLPP messages may comprise a Request Capabilities message, a Provide Capabilities message, a Request Assistance Data message, a Provide Assistance Data message, a Request Location Information message, or a Provide Location Information message. The UE may perform the positioning based, at least in part, on the plurality of SLPP messages. The UE may further exchange SLPP messages with a location server (e.g. LMF) which may assist the UE to perform the positioning and may enable the location server to obtain location results for the plurality of UEs. SLPP procedures may be defined to manage the SL positioning.
