    Abstract: Systems and methods of providing location techniques for a NB UE are described. The UE transmits, to a location server, a capability message that indicates position capabilities of the UE to support different positioning methods and common information related to the position methods, including that the UE is a NB UE. The UE receives a request for location information that includes a request for positioning measurements for a particular positioning method, a NB message size limit that indicates a limit on an amount of location information to return, and a NB response time to provide the positioning measurements. At least one of the response time or message size limit is different than for the NB UE than for non-NB UEs. The UE enters an idle state, performs the measurements, and transmits at expiry of or before the NB response time, a message containing the measurements.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for performing wireless local area network (WLAN) fine timing measurement (FTM) are described. An apparatus for a user equipment (UE) includes a memory to store session information for a long term evolution positioning protocol (LPP) session with a location server. The apparatus for the UE also includes one or more baseband processors to decode a provide assistance data LPP message from the location server as part of the LPP session, the provide assistance data LPP message including WLAN assistance information; identify one or more access points (APs) based on the WLAN assistance information; and determine at least one position measurement based on an FTM procedure with the one or more identified APs.
