Original Abstract Submitted

Systems, methods, and devices for collaborative positioning. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) is configured to perform and report positioning measurements including SL collaborative measurements. The WTRU serving as an anchor WTRU may select a set of member WTRUs for distributing the PRS measurement configurations based on the inter-WTRU distance measured over a SL. The selected subset of member WTRUs each provide measurement report to the anchor WTRU. The anchor WTRU reports to the LMF the measurements received from the member WTRUs and the associated SL distance measurements.
