Abstract: Methods and techniques are described for enhancing positioning related protocols in order to indicate when one location session is different from another location session. One or more messages provided in a location session by a location server to a user equipment (UE) may include a session indication, such as a session identifier (ID), where a different session ID is provided for each location session. The session indication may be a new session indicator provided in an initial message in a location session or an end session indicator provided in a final message in a location session. An extra message may be sent by the location server indicating that the location session has ended. A correlation ID provided by a network entity to the location server may be included in messages as the session indication, e.g., where a different correlation ID is provided for each location session.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for coordinating vehicle platooning with V2X assistance. The techniques generally include: a first vehicle associated with a source UE transmitting a request to a base station to join a vehicle platoon. The request indicates at least one of: an occupancy parameter of a first vehicle associated with the source UE; an autonomy level of the first vehicle; or a travel preference parameter. The occupancy parameter may include a number of passengers, seating positions of passengers, and other occupancy information pertaining safety and prioritization. The autonomy level enables vehicles of similar autonomy to form a platoon that optimizes headways, thus minimizing fuel consumption due to air resistance. The travel preference parameter may include a preferred speed of the source UE. The source UE may receive a response message indicating confirmation that the first vehicle is allowed to join the vehicle platoon.

Abstract: An incoming autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle may initiate/receive parking assist by providing a credit offer to parked vehicles to autonomously move or relocate so that the incoming vehicle has space to park. The incoming vehicle may send a park assist request to a parking control server or parked vehicles, including a credit offer to provide an incentive to parked vehicles to move. In response, a parking location for the incoming vehicle along with target vehicles near the parking location that may be moved may be provided to the incoming vehicle. The target vehicles may accept or reject a request to move, along with the credit offer, e.g., in a park assist negotiation with the incoming vehicle or the parking control server. Upon acceptance of the credit offer, one or more target vehicles may move or relocate to provide room for the incoming vehicle to park.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for performing positioning measurements at a mobile device during a positioning session with a serving cell. In an aspect, the mobile device determines to trigger a coverage-enhanced (CE) mode before a positioning session timeout for the positioning session expires, continues performance of the positioning measurements during the positioning session with the serving cell while the mobile device remains connected to the serving cell due to the triggered CE mode, determines whether the positioning measurements have been completed or the positioning session timeout has expired, and responsive to the determination that the positioning measurements have been completed or that the positioning session timeout has expired, reports, to a network entity in the wireless communications network, actual handover measurements to enable the network entity to make a handover determination.

Abstract: In an aspect, to perform inter-frequency measurements by a user equipment (UE) in a carrier aggregation mode, the UE receives assistance data identifying one or more reference signal occasions for one or more neighbor cells, receives information identifying one or more subframes during which the one or more neighbor cells do not carry data transmissions, identifies, for a first reference signal occasion of the one or more reference signal occasions, a first subframe of the one or more subframes that overlaps the first reference signal occasion, tunes, during the first subframe, a first active carrier receiver of a plurality of active carrier receivers away from a first frequency on which the first subframe is transmitted to a second frequency on which the first reference signal occasion is transmitted, and measures, by the first active carrier receiver, the first reference signal occasion on the second frequency during the first subframe.

Abstract: A mobile device can send and receive signals in a dedicated frequency band and receive signals in a separate frequency band separate from the dedicated frequency band. The mobile device can send one or more frequency band compatibility combinations each including first and second frequency bands, the first frequency band being in the separate frequency band and the second frequency band being in the dedicated frequency. The mobile device can listen, based on a received neighbor list, for a first signal that has a frequency in the first frequency band and for a second signal that has a frequency in the second frequency band. The mobile device can determine, based on the first signal, ranging information indicative of a range from the mobile device to a source of the first signal, e.g., to obtain improved accuracy ranging information.

Abstract: In a wireless network in which beams are transmitted by base stations, a beam relation database may be produced by crowdsourcing known positions of UEs and associated information related to beams received by the UEs at these positions. The beam information, for example, may include a beam identifier and cell identifier, and may further include measured signal parameters, such as Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) or Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ). The beam relation database may be used by a network or the UE to determine a position of a UE based on beams that are detected by the UE. The position fix may be an initial position fix that may be used to generate assistance data for the UE. Additionally, the beam relation database may be used to identify relevant measurement objects in the assistance data based on beams that are detected by the UE.
