SIDELINK POSITIONING AND RANGING OF MOBILE DEVICES WITH LOCATION SERVER ASSISTANCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18469547 titled 'SIDELINK POSITIONING AND RANGING OF MOBILE DEVICES WITH LOCATION SERVER ASSISTANCE

Simplified Explanation

Embodiments provide for enhanced procedures for a Mobile Originated Location Request (MO-LR), Mobile Terminated Location Request (MT-LR) and periodic or triggered MT-LR that may be used to enable sidelink positioning and ranging location results to be obtained for a group of two or more UEs with assistance from an LMF and to be provided to the group of UEs (MO-LR) or to an LCS Client or AF (MT-LR or periodic or triggered MT-LR). The enhancements allow the LMF to interact with just one UE of the group of UEs and for an LCS Client or AF to indicate a preference for the one UE.

  • Enhanced procedures for MO-LR, MT-LR, and periodic or triggered MT-LR
  • Enable sidelink positioning and ranging location results for a group of UEs
  • Assistance from an LMF for obtaining and providing location results
  • Interaction with just one UE of the group of UEs
  • LCS Client or AF preference indication for the one UE

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various industries such as:

  • Telecommunications
  • Location-based services
  • Emergency services

Problems Solved

  • Efficient handling of location requests for groups of UEs
  • Enhanced communication between LMF, UEs, LCS Clients, and AF
  • Preference indication for specific UEs

Benefits

  • Improved accuracy in obtaining location results
  • Streamlined procedures for location requests
  • Enhanced user experience in location-based services

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing this technology for commercial use in:

  • Fleet management
  • Asset tracking
  • Outdoor event management

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of traditional location-based services that do not involve the enhanced procedures and interactions described in this patent application.

What are the technical specifications of the enhanced procedures described in the patent application?

The technical specifications of the enhanced procedures involve:

  • Interaction between the LMF and a group of UEs
  • Sidelink positioning and ranging for obtaining location results
  • Preference indication for a specific UE by an LCS Client or AF

How does this technology improve the efficiency of location requests compared to existing methods?

This technology improves efficiency by:

  • Allowing the LMF to interact with just one UE instead of the entire group
  • Enabling preference indication for a specific UE, reducing unnecessary communication and processing for other UEs.
