Timing advance (TA) handling for sidelink (SL)-assisted positioning of a first user equipment (UE), comprises determining the first UE is configured to transmit an SL positioning reference signal (SL-PRS) to a second UE for the SL-assisted positioning. A guard period length can be determined based on a configuration of the first UE for transmitting the SL-PRS, where the guard period may comprise a period of time during which the SL-PRS is transmitted by the first UE. A message can be sent to a serving transmission reception point (TRP) of the first UE, where the message indicates the guard period and comprises a TA-related request. The TA-related request includes a request to postpone applying a TA command received by the first UE until after the guard period, or a request for the serving TRP not to send a TA command to the first UE during the guard period

Some embodiments of the present inventive concept provide a system for maintaining clock synchronization including an ultra-wideband (UWB) transmitting system and a UWB receiving system. The high precision input clock at the transmitting system produces a high precision clock frequency.

The location management device sends second SRS resource configuration information to a terminal device, where the second SRS resource configuration information includes third SRS resource configuration information and a downlink reference signal associated with an SRS resource indicated by the third SRS resource configuration information, and the third SRS resource configuration information is a part or all of the first SRS resource configuration information. The location management device configures the SRS resource for the terminal device, so that the SRS resource can be associated with the downlink reference signal. This helps the terminal device obtain information about a transmission beam for sending an SRS, and therefore SRS receiving efficiency of the cell can be improved to some extent.

In one aspect, a method for detecting changes in distance between a first wireless device and a second wireless device is provided. The method comprises determining a variation of a parameter over time, based on measurements of first timing signals transmitted between the first and second wireless devices. The variation of the parameter depends on a distance between the wireless devices, and comprises periodic step transitions as a result of relative clock drift between the wireless devices. The method further comprises predicting a time at which a periodic step transition is expected to occur based on the variation of the parameter, and determining a value of the parameter based on measurements of second timing signals. In response to a determination that the determined value of the parameter differs from an expected value of the parameter, it is determined that the distance between the wireless devices has changed.
