Abstract: In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may execute a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration having an on duration during which the UE is in a time-limited active reception state, wherein the DRX configuration is based on a transmission schedule for one or more positioning System Information Blocks (posSIBs). The UE may receive the one or more posSIBs during the on duration of the DRX configuration executed by the UE.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) decodes a first system information block (SIB) transmitted by a first cell to determine whether the first cell transmits a second SIB, decodes the second SIB based on a determination that the first cell transmits the second SIB, and reports, to a crowdsourcing server, a first set of parameters related to the second SIB transmitted by the first cell.

Abstract: A terminal position is determined with differential Global Navigation Satellite System (DGNSS) using GNSS signals from a plurality of satellite vehicles and differential corrections generated by a reference station for the GNSS signals and broadcast via a DGNSS server. The use of the differential corrections for positioning is interrupted when the determined terminal position does not improve with use of the differential corrections. The differential corrections may be interrupted for a period of time so that the terminal no longer receives the broadcast of the differential corrections or so that the differential corrections are not used for position estimation in order to reduce power consumption and reduce processing operations. The DGNSS capabilities of the terminal, such as the supported GNSS constellations and/or frequency bands, may be used by the DGNSS server to select differential corrections to broadcast to the terminal.

Abstract: Disclosed aspects and embodiments pertain to conserving power usage during an Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) measurement session. For example, a server or other network entity may receive information related to a Discontinuous Reception (DRx) or Connected Mode DRx (CDRx) configuration associated with a user equipment (UE) and provide, to the UE, information related to one or more base stations having Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) occasions that coincide with an OFF state associated with the DRx/CDRx configuration. Alternatively and/or additionally, the UE may receive OTDOA assistance information indicating when certain PRS occasions occur and a serving base station or other network entity may provide the UE with a DRx/CDRx configuration having an OFF state that coincides with the PRS occasions. As such, the DRx/CDRx parameters may be exploited to substantially reduce or eliminate measurement gaps and conserve power usage during an OTDOA session.

Abstract: A method for initiating a mobile device action based on a user-defined sequence of events includes maintaining, at the mobile device, data representative of the user-defined sequence of events. The user-defined sequence of events is associated with an action to be performed by the mobile device. The user-defined sequence of events comprises multiple events and a particular order of occurrence of the multiple events in order to trigger the associated action. The method also includes detecting, at the mobile device, a second sequence of events and comparing the second sequence of events to the user-defined sequence of events. The action associated with the user-defined sequence of events is performed in response to the second sequence of events matching the user-defined sequence of events.

Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that may be utilized, in whole or in part, to facilitate and/or support one or more operations and/or techniques for enhancing positioning assistance data via a mobile device-specific carrier aggregation capability, such as for use in or with mobile communication devices, for example.
