Systems and Methods of Providing New Radio Positioning - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18417763 titled 'Systems and Methods of Providing New Radio Positioning

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a system and method for determining the estimated location of a user equipment (UE) by allowing the UE to send a positioning request to a node while in a radio resource control idle or inactive state, and then receiving a positioning response from the node.

  • The system allows a UE to send a positioning request to a node while in a radio resource control idle or inactive state.
  • The positioning request is implemented in a random access channel message A (MsgA).
  • The UE then receives a positioning response from the node, implemented in a random access channel message B (MsgB).

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various industries such as telecommunications, navigation, and location-based services.

Problems Solved

1. Improved accuracy in determining the location of a UE. 2. Efficient use of resources by allowing positioning requests in idle or inactive states.

Benefits

1. Enhanced user experience with more accurate location services. 2. Reduced power consumption for UEs by optimizing resource usage.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhanced Location Determination System for User Equipment (UE)"

Possible Prior Art

There are existing systems for location determination of UEs, but the specific method of allowing positioning requests in idle or inactive states may be a novel aspect of this technology.

What are the technical specifications of the system described in the patent application?

The technical specifications of the system, such as the communication protocols used, the range of positioning accuracy achieved, and the compatibility with different types of UEs, are not detailed in the abstract.

How does this technology compare to existing methods of location determination for UEs?

The abstract does not provide a comparison with existing methods of location determination, so it is unclear how this technology differs or improves upon current practices.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods are provided to determine an estimated location of a user equipment (UE). For instance, a UE can provide a positioning request to a node while the UE is in a radio resource control idle (RRC_IDLE) or inactive (RRC_INACTIVE) state. The positioning request can be implemented in a random access channel (RACH) message A (MsgA). The UE can then receive a positioning response from the node. The positioning response can be implemented in a RACH message B (MsgB).
