Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless positioning. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may receive positioning assistance data for a plurality of cells, the positioning assistance data including at least a first positioning reference signal (PRS) configuration for a first cell of the plurality of cells and a second PRS configuration for a second cell of the plurality of cells. The UE may perform a handover from the first cell to the second cell during a positioning session with at least the first cell and the second cell. The UE may, after the handover, measure PRS from the second cell based on the second PRS configuration.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for UE-based wireless positioning. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may acquire, from a first set of transmission/reception entities (TREs), a first set of measurements of signals. The UE may select, from the first set of TREs, a second set of TREs, based on criteria for selecting and/or prioritizing TREs for radio frequency fingerprint (RFFP)-based positioning. The UE may acquire, from the second set of TREs, a second set of measurements, the second set of measurements comprising RFFP measurements. The UE may estimate a position of the UE based on the second set of measurements. In an aspect, the UE may input the second set of measurements into a trained machine learning (ML) model that outputs an estimated position of the UE. In an aspect, the UE receives the selection/prioritization criteria and/or the trained ML model from a network node.

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, the RACH transmission is for positioning, and positioning measurements are performed at the serving BS and (optionally) at one or more non-serving BSs. 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.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing beam selection. In one aspect, an initiating wireless device may determine whether a pre-grant acknowledgement associated with a first beam has been received from a responding wireless device within an expected receive time. The initiating wireless device may generate an indication to prevent the initiating wireless device from using the first beam for a blocking duration in response to determining that the pre-grant acknowledgement associated with the first beam has not been received within the expected receive time.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives, from a serving cell operating on a first frequency, an inter-frequency communication gap configuration specifying at least one period of time during which the UE is permitted to tune from the first frequency to a second frequency to perform a positioning operation, wherein one or more neighboring cells of the serving cell are operating on the second frequency, tunes from the first frequency to the second frequency at a start of the at least one period of time, and performs, during the at least one period of time, the positioning operation on the second frequency.

Abstract: Techniques are described for wireless communication. An orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) configuration of an uplink channel is identified for communications in an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band. An OFDMA waveform is generated based on the identified OFDMA configuration. The OFDMA waveform is communicated in a signal in the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band. A virtual cell identifier of a first base station may be associated with transmissions between the first base station and a first user equipment (UE). A set of common resource blocks may be identified for transmission of a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) between the first base station and the first UE. A configuration of an uplink channel may be dynamically selected for uplink communications in an unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band. A waveform may be generated based on the selected configuration. The waveform may be communicated in a signal in the unlicensed radio frequency spectrum band.

Abstract: In an aspect, a method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) includes determining that a positioning model error instance has occurred during a positioning occasion based on 1) a position uncertainty associated with a first position estimate satisfying positioning uncertainty error criteria, wherein the first position estimate is obtained during the positioning occasion by applying a first positioning model to radio frequency fingerprint (RFFP) measurements, 2) a positioning mismatch between the first position estimate of the UE and a second position estimate of the UE satisfying position mismatch error criteria, wherein the second position estimate of the UE is obtained during the positioning occasion by performing a positioning technique that does not use the first positioning model, or 3) any combination thereof; and determining that the first positioning model has failed based on a number of positioning model error instances satisfying positioning model failure criteria.

Abstract: Techniques described herein provide for a mobile device communicating a timing quality metric related to an uplink (UL) signal for UL and/or downlink-uplink (DL-UL) positioning techniques. The timing quality metric can be indicative of an accuracy of the transmission timing of one or more reference signals (e.g., in relation to a downlink (DL) signal or other UL reference signal) and may be communicated using an indexed and/or enumerated value. This information can be included as an information element (IE) in a report provided by the mobile device to a receiving network entity or location server.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless positioning. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives a set of antenna parameters for a plurality of antenna ports of a transmission-reception point (TRP), obtains positioning measurements of a plurality of positioning reference signal (PRS) resources transmitted on the plurality of antenna ports, reconstructs an underlying physical channel between the TRP and the UE based on the positioning measurements of the plurality of PRS resources, and determines a downlink angle of arrival (DL-AoD) measurement from the TRP to the UE based on the reconstructed underlying physical channel.
