Disclosed are a method and apparatus for transmitting, by a first terminal, a first positioning reference signal (PRS) for relative positioning in a communication system that supports sidelink communication that supports a sidelink according to various embodiments. Disclosed are a method comprising the steps of: receiving a second PRS requesting transmission of the first PRS from a second terminal; measuring an angle of arrival (AoA) on the basis of the second PRS; determining a first PRS pattern of the first PRS on the basis of the AoA; determining a time resource region in which the transmission of the first PRS is requested on the basis of a second PRS pattern of the second PRS; and transmitting the first PRS on the basis of the first PRS pattern and the determined time resource region, and an apparatus therefor.

A measurement method including determining, by a terminal device, a first adjustment parameter of a to-be-measured neighboring cell, determining, based on the first adjustment parameter, a first synchronization signal block-based measurement timing configuration (SMTC) window corresponding to the to-be-measured neighboring cell, and measuring the to-be-measured neighboring cell based on the first SMTC window.

A method for operating a plurality of antennas of a vehicle is disclosed, in which the vehicle communicates wirelessly with an external radio station while traveling through a radio cell of the external radio station by means of a radio signal emitted by the plurality of antennas. The vehicle includes a plurality of antennas and a controller operatively connected to the antennas.

Aspects described herein may allow for vehicle tracking. Systems and methods described herein may allow a vehicle to automatically detect the presence of a physical marker at a parking space. An image of the physical marker may be processed to determine the location of the vehicle, which may be stored and/or output for display.

A system, computer software and method for collecting, in addition to position data, additional positioning data in a user terminal served by a communication network. The method includes initiating, by generating a message within the user terminal, collection of the positioning data, where the positioning data includes information based on which a physical location of the user terminal is determined; measuring, by the user terminal, at least one parameter related to the physical location of the user terminal in response to the message; producing, within the user terminal, measurement reports that include the at least one parameter; selecting, within the user terminal, one or more measurement reports that were generated in response to the message generated by the user terminal; reporting the selected one or more measurement reports to an interface within the user terminal; and transmitting, from the interface, the reported one or more measurement reports to an external server or to the communication network.

An apparatus, including cameras, microphone, speaker, processor, display, touchscreen keyboard, global positioning system, and collision avoidance sensor. Upon detecting a texting, e-mail, operational mode, game or gaming operational mode, or speakerphone, operational mode, the processor activates a camera and the collision avoidance sensor. The display displays a view in front of, or an anticipated travel path of movement of, the apparatus. The processor monitors a location of the apparatus. If the apparatus is outside of the safe area of travel, the processor activates the camera or a second camera to record a picture or video at the apparatus. The processor generates a notification message containing the picture or the video or containing a link to the picture or the video. The apparatus transmits the notification message to a communication device associated with an authorized individual or law enforcement personnel.

A system for monitoring and controlling a manufacturing environment is disclosed. Aspects discussed include beacons broadcasting identifying information for aspects of the manufacturing environment such as workstations, manufactured items, machines, equipment, and people. The identifying information may be used to generate reports about the operation of these and possibly other aspects, as well as provide control options for changing the manufacturing environment. Employees may move about the environment to visually monitor activities taking place, while the system may automatically query for additional information about the tools, equipment, people encountered in the environment. Control options for changing aspects of the manufacturing processes may also be automatically displayed as well.

A reference pose of an object in a coordinate system of a map of an area is determined. The reference pose is based on a three-dimensional (3D) reference model representing the object. A first pose of the object is determined as the object moves with respect to the coordinate system. The first pose is determined based on the reference pose and sensor data collected by the sensor at a first time. A second pose of the object is determined as the object continues to move with respect to the coordinate system. The second pose is determined based on the reference pose, the first pose, and sensor data collected by the sensor at a second time consecutive to the first time.

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5.sup.th-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates Beyond 4.sup.th-Generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). A wireless communication system is provided. The wireless communication system includes a location management function (LMF) that may efficiently determine and provide information necessary for a base station to configure a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission resource required for a terminal.
