POSITION DETECTING SYSTEM
A position detecting system includes receivers and a control unit. The four receivers are attached at positions different from one another in the circumferential direction of a pillar extending in the vertical direction. Each of first areas, which expands in the circumferential direction of the pillar, is an area in which the corresponding three receivers among the receivers receive radio waves from a transmitter directly, and is an area in which the remaining one receiver does not receive radio waves from the transmitter directly. Each of second areas is an area in which the corresponding two receivers among the receivers receive radio waves from the transmitter directly, and is an area in which the remaining two receivers do not receive radio waves from the transmitter directly. The control unit calculates the position of the transmitter by using different position computational algorithms for the first areas and the second areas.
METHODS, APPARATUSES AND SYSTEMS DIRECTED TO IDLE/INACTIVE MODE POSITIONING IN NR
Methods, apparatuses, systems, etc., directed to performing positioning of a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) while it is in idle mode and/or inactive mode (collectively idle/inactive mode) in NR are disclosed herein. Performing positioning, including positioning measurement and/or reporting, in idle/inactive mode may allow for increased positioning accuracy and/or decreased latency of location determination. In various embodiments, a WTRU in idle/inactive mode may transmit a positioning measurement report in various ways, including (i) in a Random-Access Channel (RACH) preamble; (ii) appended to a RACH preamble; and/or (iii) in a Physical Uplink Shared Channel. In various embodiments, a WTRU in idle/inactive mode may transmit uplink-based positioning related reference signals. In various embodiments, a WTRU in an idle/inactive mode may transmit, over a dedicated physical channel, (e.g., downlink) positioning measurement reports and/or reference signals (RSs) for uplink positioning measurements.
