Abstract: The relative position of a user equipment (UE) within a vehicle is determined using angular measurements, such as angle of arrival (AOA), and optionally ranging measurements, with respect to a number of wireless transceivers within the vehicle using wideband signals. The relative position of the UE with respect to a personal zone or the steering wheel may be determined based on known positions of the wireless transceivers. If the UE is determined to be within the personal zone, at least one functionality of the UE is restricted to avoid driver distraction and, optionally, the operation autonomous driving of the vehicle adjusted. If the UE is worn on the driver's wrist the relative position of the UE with respect to the steering wheel may be similarly determined and operation of the vehicle modified if the UE is determined to be outside a threshold distance from the steering wheel.

Abstract: Differing operations of a wireless communication device benefit from different antenna configurations, such as for positioning, where closely spaced antennas are desirable, and data communication, where antenna diversity is desirable. A device is configured to receive a request for receive a request for determining a position of a user equipment (UE), select one of a first plurality of antennas or a second plurality of antennas for determining the position of the UE, receive wireless signals using the selected first plurality of antennas or the second plurality of antennas, and determine the position of the UE based at least in part on the received wireless signals.
