    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 one aspect, a method includes maintaining a list of future user events. The list includes a field associated with each of the future user events to indicate whether charging of a mobile device is possible during a respective future user event. The method also includes receiving user input indicating whether charging of the mobile device is possible during at least one of the future user events and updating the field associated with the future user events based on the user input. Also included in the method is setting a battery charging threshold based on one or more of the future user events and based on the fields associated with the future user events. An alert may then be generated prior to a future user event in response to a current battery level of the mobile device being less than the battery charging threshold.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for handling uplink based positioning during demodulated reference signal (DMRS) bundling. An example method for transmitting positioning reference signals and demodulated reference signal bundles includes determining a first transmit power for transmitting an uplink positioning reference signal, determining a second transmit power for transmitting a demodulated reference signal bundle, determining a common transmit power based at least in part on the first transmit power and the second transmit power, wherein the common transmit power is configured to maintain phase continuity in the demodulated reference signal bundle, and transmitting the uplink positioning reference signal and the demodulated reference signal bundle with the common transmit power.

    Abstract: A method of indicating resources for uplink-based positioning includes: determining whether a UE is within a downlink coverage area of a serving cell, for a first frequency band and a transmit power of the serving cell, and outside an uplink coverage area of the serving cell for the first frequency band and a transmit power of the UE; identifying a second frequency band supported by the UE, the second frequency band including frequencies below a lowest frequency of the first frequency band; and providing at least one PRS indication indicating at least OFDM UL-PRS resources in the second frequency band for the UE based on a determination that the UE is outside the uplink coverage area of the serving cell for the first frequency band and the transmit power of the UE.
