Original Abstract Submitted

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.
