A UE includes a processor configured to: receive, in a primary cell, a dormant indication of a dormant state of a secondary cell; and respond to receiving the dormant indication by implementing the dormant state of the secondary cell by inhibiting monitoring of a physical downlink control channel of the secondary cell; where the processor is configured to respond to a positioning signal including a first portion that is configured within a bandwidth of the secondary cell and that is received while the secondary cell is in the dormant state by: withholding processing of the positioning signal; or withholding processing of the first portion of the positioning signal and processing a second portion, if any, of the positioning signal that is configured outside the bandwidth of the secondary cell; or processing the positioning signal.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to positioning target device. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the location of the target device is measured by two anchor devices. The distances between the target device at a location and the anchor devices are measured and the distances between the target device at a further location and the anchor devices are also measured. The location of the target device is estimated based on the distances. In this way, fewer anchor devices are used to perform the positioning.

Positioning of one or more user equipments (UEs) is performed using broadcast common sounding reference signals (SRS) resources for positioning. The common SRS that is broadcast by a UE is received and measured by one or more base stations and one or more other UEs. The other UEs may have known positions and may server as anchor nodes for positioning. The other UEs may have known positions and may serve as a positioning (anchor) node or may have unknown positions and may be jointly positioned with the target UE. During joint positioning, each of the other UEs may similarly broadcast a common set of SRS that is received and measured by the base stations and other UEs for positioning. An angular measurement of the SRS broadcast by one or more UEs may be measured and used to resolve mirror symmetry in positioning solutions.

A positioning processing method applied to a base station is provided. The positioning processing method includes: receiving a first positioning reference signal from a first terminal device; receiving a second positioning reference signal from a second terminal device bound to the first terminal device; determining position information of the first terminal device based on the first positioning reference signal and the second positioning reference signal; and sending the position information to at least one of the first terminal device or he second terminal device.

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives one or more positioning reference signals from a first transmission-reception point (TRP) involved in a positioning session with the UE, detects whether or not there is a positioning bias event associated with the first TRP based on one or more parameters related to the one or more positioning reference signals, the positioning bias event affecting an accuracy of a location estimate of the UE, and transmits, in response to the detection that there is a positioning bias event, a report of the positioning bias event to a network node. Upon receiving the report, the network node performs one or more corrective actions to address the positioning bias event.

A method of transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) for positioning includes: obtaining, at a user equipment (UE), a plurality of SRS transmission parameters; and transmitting SRS for positioning from the UE in accordance with the plurality of SRS transmission parameters while the UE is in an unconnected state, relative to a communication network, or an inactive state.

A user equipment (UE) includes: a transceiver configured to receive positioning signals; a memory; and a processor, communicatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, configured to: send, via the transceiver to a network entity, a capability indication that includes a first positioning-method indication indicating that the processor supports simultaneous processing of a first combination of positioning methods; and simultaneously process one or more first positioning signals in accordance with the first combination of positioning methods to determine first position information for the UE.

An exemplary computing system for locating an object in an operational area is disclosed. The computing system having a server and plurality of edge devices. The edge devices having an image sensor configured to capture video data of the operational area from a specified location. The edge devices can process the video data to identify an object and generate a two-dimensional shape representative of the object, generate a vector from a lens of the image sensor through a center point of the two-dimensional shape; and determine relative position of the two-dimensional shape based on geospatial information of the edge device and the vector. The server and one or more of the edge devices receiving video data from a plurality of edge devices and generating a graphic, which defines a position of the object within the operational area based on the vector and location information of each edge device.

A system may receive, from a network, an estimate of coordinates of a location of a potential interference source; determine, based in the estimate, whether the system is within a first threshold distance from the location; if the system is with the first threshold distance from the location, obtain real-time interference data from the network; determine, based on the real-time interference data, whether a source of interference exists near a first location that is within a second distance from a second location specified by the real-time interference data; and send a reply that indicates a result of the determination to the network.

Embodiments provide for a method of determining a geospatial position of a point of interest and a portable positioning device. In one embodiment, the method includes collecting data from a receiving unit and data from at least one of an imaging device and an IMU of the positioning device for each one of a plurality of positions of the positioning device. The collected data is then transmitted to a data fusing processor for determining orientations and positions of the positioning device for the plurality of positions in a global coordinate system. Further, the method includes obtaining a pointing input including a sighting direction towards the point of interest from the positioning device being positioned at at least one reference position. The pointing input is transmitted to the data fusing processor for identifying the point of interest and for determining the geospatial position of the point of interest in the global coordinate system.
