Publication number: 20240380555Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for UE positioning. In an example, a UE transmits a sounding reference signal for positioning (SRSp) to a base station.

The window and/or collision rule can reduce the potential for signal collision with non-SRSp signals. Further, the UE can implement a low power high accuracy position (LPHAP) technique. In this technique, a fallback behavior or an SRSp transmission can be stopped if the UE is not able to accurately measure āNā configured reference signals, where āNā can be based on the positioning method.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 11, 2024Publication date: November 14, 2024Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Oghenekome OTERI, Haitong SUN, Wei ZENG, Dawei ZHANG, Chunxuan YE
