This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18032460 titled 'CONFIGURATION OF PERIODIC UE UL GRANT REPORTING OVER NRPPA
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system and method for positioning User Equipment (UE) in a wireless network.
- The method involves a location server sending messages to a base station that serves a specific UE.
- These messages include information about the expected reporting of the UE and priority indication for positioning requirements.
- The purpose is to enable the base station to configure uplink grant resources for the UE.
- The location server then receives a message from the base station acknowledging the success or failure of the configured uplink grant resources.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods are disclosed for User Equipment (UE) positioning for uplink grant resources. In one embodiment, a method performed by a location server includes sending one or more first New Radio Positioning Protocol Annex (NRPPa) messages to a base station that serves a target UE. Herein, the one or more first NRPPa messages include at least an expected periodical reporting of the target UE and provide priority indication associated with positioning requirements of the target UE so as to enable the base station to configure uplink grant resources. Also, the method further includes receiving, from the base station, a second NRPPa message that acknowledges a success or failure of the configured uplink grant resources.
