Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer programs are provided for propagation delay compensation. A method for a UE includes receiving a configuration to provide a propagation delay notification for a propagation delay estimation; determining when the notification should be transmitted; transmitting the propagation delay notification; and determining a corresponding action based on the configuration of a relation between uplink reference signals and downlink reference signals. Methods are also provided for a radio node such as a base station.

Abstract: A method for identifying potentially interfering devices is provided. The method may include receiving, by a first base station, an information element comprising information for identifying location of a first device with respect to the first base station, and sending a request to a second base station. The request may include location information on the basis of the received information element. The method may include receiving, in response to the request, an identifier of at least one further device, and transmitting the identifier of the at least one further device to the first device for interference measurements.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and computer readable media for adaptive configuration of multistatic harmonic tag backscatter. A network device transmits, to an illuminator for a passive tag, a request for transmitting an activation signal to a passive tag at a primary frequency and a first transmission power. The network device receives, from the illuminator, information about a harmonic frequency of a harmonic of the activation signal back-scattered from the passive tag, a received level of the harmonic and a distance between the illuminator and the passive tag. The network device selects at least one reader for the passive tag. The network device configures the illuminator to transmit the activation signal to the passive tag at the primary frequency. The network device configures the at least one reader to receive the harmonic of the activation signal at the harmonic frequency.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to an apparatus, method and computer program for timing compensation, for example timing compensation in relation to timing information provided by one or more positioning reference units (PRUs). An example method may involve providing data representing a timing error associated with a first position reference unit located at a first known position, with respect to a second position reference unit located at a second known position. The method may also comprise modifying timing information received from the first position reference unit, the modifying being based on at least the first timing error.

Abstract: A network element estimates a position of a user equipment served by a first network and a second network. At the network element, at least one memory and computer program code are configured to, with at least one processor, cause the network element to: determine first position measurement information for the user equipment in the first network; obtain position assistance data associated with the second network, the position assistance data including at least second position measurement information for the user equipment in the second network; obtain frequency offset information and time offset information for transmissions in the first network and transmissions in the second network; and estimate a position of the user equipment based on the first position measurement information, the second position measurement information, the frequency offset information and the time offset information.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising: an antenna array comprising a plurality of antenna elements configured for receiving multiple input multiple output (MIMO) signals. The antenna array comprises at least a first subpart of the antenna array comprising a first subsection of the plurality of antenna elements. A second subpart of the antenna array comprises a second subsection of the plurality of antenna elements. An alignment of the antenna elements in the second subpart deviates substantially by 30°-60° from an alignment of the antenna elements in the first subpart.
