IMPROVEMENTS IN AND RELATING TO POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL CONFIGURATION IN A TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18437187 titled 'IMPROVEMENTS IN AND RELATING TO POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL CONFIGURATION IN A TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IOT). The method involves configuring positioning reference signals in a telecommunication system and using User Equipment (UE) in a telecommunications network.
- Method of configuring positioning reference signals:
- Distributing a plurality of positioning reference signals on a per-slot, per-mini slot, or per-subframe basis.
- Method of using User Equipment (UE) in a telecommunications network:
- Configuring the simultaneous use of TD-OCC DMRS and PTRS in at least one of uplink and downlink.
