POSITIONING IN WIRELESS SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18031767 titled 'POSITIONING IN WIRELESS SYSTEMS

Simplified Explanation

- This patent application is related to positioning in wireless systems. - It discloses various features that can be implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) to improve measurement reporting, behavior during a multi-beam channel scan, behavior in the presence of multipath, and behavior during reporting to acquire correction information from the network. - One feature involves the WTRU receiving a PRS transmission via multiple paths, which are associated with different beams. - The WTRU then reports the Rx-Tx time differences associated with the reception of the PRS transmission via multiple paths. - The WTRU also transmits respective SRSp's (Signal Reference Points) associated with the respective paths. - These features aim to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of positioning in wireless systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed herein associated with positioning in wireless systems. Features may be implemented, for example, in the behavior of a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) for measurement reporting during a multi-beam channel scan, in WTRU behavior during a measurement report in the presence of a multipath, and/or in WTRU behavior during reporting to acquire correction information from the network. A WTRU may receive a PRS transmission via multiple paths, wherein the paths may be associated with the beams. The WTRU may report Rx−Tx time differences associated with the reception of the PRS transmission via multiple paths and transmission of respective SRSp's associated with the respective paths.
