    Abstract: Aspects presented herein may enable an electronic device to determine gyroscope biases and calibrate a gyroscope without a magnetometer or without relying on data generated from a magnetometer. In one aspect, an apparatus estimates a set of gyroscopic biases for a plurality of temperatures or temperature ranges to create a mapping that maps the plurality of temperatures or temperature ranges to the set of gyroscopic biases. The apparatus monitors temperatures of a gyroscope via a gyroscope temperature sensor. The apparatus calibrates the gyroscope in response to the gyroscope changing from a first temperature to a second temperature based on the mapping or based on a predicted value derived from the mapping. In some aspects, the apparatus calculates a DR trajectory of the apparatus based at least in part on the calibrated gyroscope and the accelerometer without using a magnetometer or without using data generated from the magnetometer.

    Abstract: A UE includes: at least one sensor configured to provide at least one sensor measurement; and a processor configured to: determine first and second ranges between the UE and a positioning signal source based on first and second positioning signal measurements of first and second positioning signals from the positioning signal source corresponding to first and second times; determine whether a selected range of the first range or the second range is a multipath range based on the first range, the second range, and movement of the UE between the first time and the second time indicated by the at least one sensor measurement; and discount use of the selected range in a positioning technique in response to the selected range being determined to be a multipath range.

    Abstract: Aspects presented herein may improve the performance of positioning devices by enabling the positioning devices to utilize transformed map data with limited third party knowledge of the transformation. Aspects presented herein may enable a positioning device to make the map data from another coordinate system usable for positioning algorithms without knowledge of the transformation. In one aspect, a UE transmits a request for map data based on a first set of coordinates in a first coordinate system. The UE receives the map data based on a second set of coordinates in a second coordinate system, where the first set of coordinates in the first coordinate system is distinct from the second set of coordinates in the second coordinate system. The UE calculates a set of relative distances between the second set of coordinates and one or more objects corresponding to the map data.

    Abstract: Aspects presented herein may enable a positioning device or entity to perform PR measurement error detection and classification based on SV geometry via ML. In one aspect, a UE or a location server determines for each SV of a set of SVs at least a geometric orientation with respect to the UE. The UE or the location server determines, based on an ML classifier and the determined geometric orientation with respect to the UE for each SV of at least a subset of the set of SVs, a relative PR weight for each SV of the set of SVs. The UE or the location server estimates a position of the UE based on PR measurements of each SV of the set of SVs and the relative PR weight for each SV of the set of SVs.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for determining a location of a mobile device based on visual positioning solution (VPS). An example method for determining a position estimate of a mobile device includes obtaining sensor information, detecting one or more identifiable features in the sensor information, determining a range to at least one of the one or more identifiable features, obtaining coarse map information, determining a location of the at least one of the one or more identifiable features based on the coarse map information, and determining the position estimate for the mobile device based at least in part on the range to the at least one of the one or more identifiable features.
