Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory media for providing signaling consideration for wireless positioning with disjoint bandwidth segments. For instance, one or more indications of a preferred bandwidth configuration can be transmitted by a user equipment. Based on the one or more indications, the user equipment can receive a positioning configuration that indicates disjoint bandwidth segments containing a positioning reference signal based on the preferred bandwidth configuration. In response, the user equipment can then determine one or more positioning measurements based on the positioning reference signal in the disjoint bandwidth segments.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive control information that identifies criteria to use for determining a delivery status of a protocol data unit (PDU) set that includes multiple PDUs. The PDU set may be associated with an application layer of the UE. Accordingly, the UE may receive at least a portion of the PDU set, and may determine the delivery status of the PDU set based on the received portion of the PDU set and the criteria identified by the control information. The delivery status of the PDU set may refer to whether the PDU set was successfully delivered to the UE. The delivery status of the PDU set may be based on a quantity of bits or PDUs in the received portion of the PDU set, a threshold quantity of bits or PDUs, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a serving BS of a UE may transmit a PDCCH communication to the UE. The PDCCH communication triggers a partial RACH procedure, whereby a RACH transmission is performed.

In some designs, measurement data based on the positioning measurements are conveyed to a position estimation entity (e.g., LMF), which performs a positioning estimate of the UE.
