Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and apparatuses for mesh-based positioning operations in a wireless communication system. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) includes receiving first sidelink (SL) positioning reference signals (PRSs) from M1 UEs, respectively, where M1>=2; determining positioning metrics based on the first SL PRSs; determining a first report; and transmitting the first report to a third UE or one of the M1 UEs. The first report includes the positioning metrics corresponding to M2 UEs, respectively, from the M1 UEs; time-stamps associated with the positioning metrics, respectively; and identities (IDs) of the M2 UEs, respectively.
