==METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR POSITIONING IN RRC_IDLE OR RRC_INACTIVE STATE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18458019 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR POSITIONING IN RRC_IDLE OR RRC_INACTIVE STATE

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes methods and apparatuses for positioning in RRC_IDLE or RRC_INACTIVE states in a wireless communication system. It involves determining configurations for positioning based on DL PRS or UL SRS, receiving DCI with an indication of which configurations to use for positioning.

* Simplified Explanation:
  - Method for positioning in wireless communication systems.
  - Determines configurations for DL PRS or UL SRS based positioning.
  - Receives DCI with indication of which configurations to use.

== Potential Applications ==
This technology can be applied in:
- 5G networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
- Location-based services

== Problems Solved ==
- Efficient positioning in idle or inactive states
- Optimized use of positioning configurations
- Enhanced accuracy in wireless communication systems

== Benefits ==
- Improved positioning accuracy
- Reduced power consumption
- Enhanced network efficiency


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Methods and apparatuses for positioning in RRC_IDLE or RRC_INACTIVE states. A method of a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system includes determining a first set of configurations for positioning and determining a second set of configurations for positioning. The first and second sets of configurations include configurations for a downlink (DL) positioning reference signal (PRS) based positioning measurement or an uplink (UL) sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission. The method further includes receiving a downlink control information (DCI) format including an indication on which of the first or second sets of configurations to use for positioning.
