  • Publication number: 20240069142
    Abstract: Information inherently conveyed in the hierarchical structure of a positioning frequency layer is leveraged to determine a sequence identifier unique to each Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) resource of a sequence of PRS resources used in a positioning session of a user equipment (UE). This unique sequence number can then be used in the reporting of measurement data by the UE or other reporting device to a location server. As such, embodiments herein effectively provide means for compressing identification information included in position measurement reporting to the location server.

  • Publication number: 20240061128
    Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for performing Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS) signal acquisition. For example, an example of a method for performing QZSS signal acquisition includes obtaining a modulated message signal using a frequency band and generating, based on an estimated set of signal acquisition parameters associated with an acquired signal, an energy grid of correlation codes. A series of extracted data bytes can be generated for each respective hypothesis of a plurality of hypotheses, based on a location of a peak energy within the energy grid of correlation codes. A correct hypothesis out of the plurality of hypotheses can be determined, wherein the correct hypothesis is associated with a generated series of extracted data bytes that includes a pre-determined header preamble pattern. The modulated message signal can be decoded using an initial code phase associated with the correct hypothesis.

  • Publication number: 20240064685
    Abstract: Disclosed are various techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) measures, during a measurement period that spans multiple measurement opportunities, multiple positioning reference signal (PRS) instances, each PRS instance occupying a different measurement opportunity, to produce a plurality of positioning measurements. A PRS instance can be a PRS resource, a PRS resource set, a PRS frequency layer, a transmission/reception point, or combinations thereof. For each PRS instance measured, the UE determines whether the PRS instance was punctured. Upon a determination that the PRS instance was punctured, the UE discards at least a portion of the positioning measurement and modifies the measurement period, e.g., by restarting the measurement period or extending the measurement period in order to take a measurement of another PRS instance.

  • Publication number: 20240036149
    Abstract: A mobile device and base station are enabled to support improved positioning accuracy in the presence of phase noise in high frequency radio network, such as in 5G New Radio network operating in mmWave. Phase Tracking Reference Signal (PTRS) may be transmitted with Positioning Reference Signals (PRS) and used for positioning and/or used to correct the phase offset between symbols in the PRS. A request may be made to transmit PTRS alone or with the PRS, or that the PRS is transmitted with a specific PRS frame structure, e.g., with a specific comb value, that minimizes the impact of phase noise. The PTRS or a phase ramp of the staggered symbols in the PRS may be used to estimate and correct the phase offset. Less than all of the symbols transmitted in the PRS may be used to generate positioning measurements to minimize the impact of phase noise.

In one aspect, a first network entity transmits a request for mobility data associated with a set of UEs, where the request for the mobility data is transmitted for a second network entity associated with mobility data analytics. The first network entity receives, based on the request, an indication of the mobility data associated with the set of UEs. The first network performs at least one location function for at least one UE in the set of UEs based on the indication of the mobility data.
