Publication number: 20240036150Abstract: The present disclosure provides a mechanism enabling switching between different configuration for a positioning procedure to dynamically adapt the accuracy of the positioning procedure to the current requirements of client devices and/or environmental conditions. The switch may be initiated by a network node which can instruct a client device to deactivate positioning according to a first configuration and to activate positioning according to a second configuration. The network node can determine the second configuration based on e.g. position of client device, density of client devices, current position requirements per client device, network load, and/or available resources. Thereby, allowing the configuration for the positioning procedure to be adapted based on dynamic requirements on the positioning procedure.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Maria FRESIA, Taimoor ABBAS, Kiseon RYU, Gustaf CLAESON

Patent number: 10581502Abstract: A method performed by a first radio node for adjusting a set of beams for communication with a second radio node. The first radio node obtains an indication of a first set of beams based on a beam prediction model. The first radio node sends a training symbol on each beam in the first set of beams. The first radio node receives from the second radio node, feedback relating to the sent training symbols. A second beam is identified based on the feedback and is used for transmission. The received feedback and the second beam are used to adapt the beam prediction model. Further, the first radio node decides whether to adjust the number of beams in the first set of beams based on a relationship between the first and second beam. The adjusted first set of beams is to be used for sending training symbols before an upcoming communication.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2017Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (Publ)Inventors: Maria Fresia, Johan Ottersten, Hugo Tullberg
