BANDWIDTH PART OPERATION AND DOWNLINK OR UPLINK POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL SCHEME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18534310 titled 'BANDWIDTH PART OPERATION AND DOWNLINK OR UPLINK POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL SCHEME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications, specifically focusing on positioning reference signal configurations within a carrier bandwidth of a component carrier.
- User equipment (UE) receives an indication of a positioning reference signal configuration from a base station.
- Based on the positioning reference signal configuration, the UE determines a reference point within a carrier bandwidth of a component carrier and a frequency domain allocation for a positioning reference signal relative to the reference point.
- The UE then transmits the positioning reference signal or measures it based on the frequency domain allocation.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in:
- 5G and future wireless communication systems
- Location-based services and applications
Problems Solved
- Efficient positioning reference signal transmission and reception
- Improved accuracy in determining user equipment location
Benefits
- Enhanced wireless communication performance
- Better user experience with location-based services
Potential Commercial Applications
- Telecommunications companies
- Location-based service providers
Possible Prior Art
There may be prior art related to positioning reference signal configurations in wireless communications systems, but specific examples are not provided in this abstract.

Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive an indication of a positioning reference signal configuration of a base station. The UE may determine, based on the positioning reference signal configuration, a reference point within a carrier bandwidth of a component carrier and a frequency domain allocation for a positioning reference signal relative to the reference point. The UE may transmit the positioning reference signal or measure the positioning reference signal based on the frequency domain allocation.
