UPLINK POSITIONING METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18342121 Titled 'UPLINK POSITIONING METHOD AND COMMUNICATION APPARATUS'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a method and apparatus for reducing power consumption in a terminal during a positioning process. The method involves the terminal receiving indication information and a message, and then sending a reference signal in a specific positioning area based on the resource configuration information provided. The reference signal is used to determine the location of the terminal. The goal of this method is to meet the requirement for low power consumption while still accurately determining the terminal's location.
Original Abstract Submitted
An uplink positioning method and a communication apparatus are provided, to reduce power consumption of a terminal in a positioning process, and meet a requirement for low power consumption. The method includes: A terminal receives first indication information and a first message, and sends, in a positioning area indicated by the first indication information, a reference signal based on resource configuration information corresponding to the positioning area. The first indication information indicates one or more positioning areas, the first message includes one or more pieces of resource configuration information, one piece of resource configuration information corresponds to one positioning area, each piece of resource configuration information is used to configure a resource for the terminal to send the reference signal, and the reference signal is used to determine a location of the terminal.
