PROXIMITY-BASED PRIORITIZATION OF UPLINK AND DOWNLINK POSITIONING RESOURCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18043855 Titled 'PROXIMITY-BASED PRIORITIZATION OF UPLINK AND DOWNLINK POSITIONING RESOURCES'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes different techniques for wireless communication. One technique involves a user equipment (UE) receiving information from a network entity about positioning reference signal (PRS) resources and from a base station about sounding reference signal (SRS) resources. The UE then selects PRS resources that meet a proximity requirement with at least one SRS resource and uses them for UE Rx-Tx measurements. Another technique involves a network entity transmitting information to a UE about PRS resources and specifying the number of PRS resources to be used by the UE for UE Rx-Tx measurements.
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are various techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity, first information identifying positioning reference signal (PRS) resources. The UE may receive, from a base station, second information identifying sounding reference signal (SRS) resources. The UE may select, from PRS resources identified by the first information, PRS resources that satisfy a PRS-SRS proximity requirement with regard to at least one SRS resource identified by the second information. The UE may use the selected PRS resources at least for performing UE Rx-Tx measurements. In another aspect, a network entity may transmit, to a UE, first information identifying PRS resources. The network entity may transmit, to the UE, second information specifying a number of PRS resources to be used by the UE at least for performing UE Rx-Tx measurements.
