Abstract: A method includes obtaining a first power measurement associated with resource blocks (RBs) being utilized by a terminal device (TD). The method includes determining whether the first power measurement satisfies a first threshold. The method includes, upon determining that the first power measurement satisfies the first threshold, transmitting, to a target TD, a positioning reference signal (PRS). The method includes, determining whether the first power measurement does not satisfy the first threshold and, in response, determining a set of comb parameters. The method includes obtaining, based on the set of comb parameters, a second power measurement associated with resource elements (REs) related to the RBs. The method includes determining whether the second power measurement satisfies a second threshold. The method includes, upon determining that the second power measurement satisfies the second threshold, transmitting, based on the set of comb parameters, the PRS to the target TD.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to positioning. A first device performs positioning measurements of a first set of reference signals in a first frequency range. If the first device determines that quality of service requirements for positioning the first device are satisfied, the first device transmits a first measurement report to a second device. The first measurement report only comprises a first set of measurement results associated with the first set of reference signals.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method comprising obtaining a first positioning reference signal configuration from at least a first serving access node (330) and a first neighbour access node (320) comprised in a first network, wherein the apparatus (310) is associated with a first network subscription to the first network, determining first positioning information by receiving a first positioning reference signal based on the obtained first positioning reference signal configuration, obtaining a second positioning reference signal configuration from a second serving access node (360) and a second neighbour access node (350) in a second network, wherein the apparatus is further associated with a second network subscription to the second network, determining second positioning information by receiving a second positioning information reference signal based on the obtained second positioning reference signals, estimating clock frequency difference between the first network and the second network and determining an offset between the first network and the second network, removing the determined offset from the obtained first positioning reference signal and the second positioning signal, and determining a joint positioning information by using the first and the second positioning information.

Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to coordinated positioning via sidelink resource. A first terminal device transmits a first message to a plurality of positioning terminal devices including a second terminal device. The first message indicates sidelink resources for transmitting reference signals from the plurality of positioning terminal devices to the first terminal device. Upon receiving the first message, the second terminal device determines a first sidelink resource for transmitting a first reference signal for positioning the first terminal device from the sidelink resources, and then transmits the first reference signal via the first sidelink resource to the first terminal device. Through this solution, a sidelink-based positioning solution can be implemented. In particular, even in the scenario of being partial coverage or being out of coverage, where at least part of the devices involved in the positioning procedure cannot access the network device, the resource allocation for transmitting RSs can be implemented.
