  • Publication number: 20220070819
    Abstract: A TRP clusters multiple UEs into a group, configures selected ones of the UEs in the group to be head UEs, and configures UEs not selected as head UEs to be group UEs. The group UEs are configured to send signals or calculated information used for positioning of the group UEs to head UEs instead of to the TRP. The TRP receives calculated information that was calculated by the head UEs from the signals or calculated information used for positioning of the group UEs, and forwards the calculated information from the head user equipment toward a network node for position determination of the group UEs. The head UEs both transmit to and receive signals from the group UEs and use the signals to calculate the calculated information. The head UEs may also receive information calculated by the group UEs, which is also used to calculate the calculated information.
