Abstract: Techniques are discussed herein for efficiently supporting broadcast of location assistance data (AD) in a wireless network to assist in locating a user equipment (UE). A location server (LS) may send some location AD, which may be optionally ciphered, to base stations for broadcast in cells supported by the base stations. Capability information provided by a UE to the LS indicating a level of support by the UE for receiving broadcast AD and supporting ciphering may enable the LS to determine whether, and what type of, additional AD needs to be sent to the UE by point to point means. An LS may use capability information received from a large number of UEs to assist in determining the types of location assistance data to be broadcast and usage of ciphering.

Abstract: Un procedimiento para soportar servicios de ubicación en un dispositivo móvil que comprende: recibir en el dispositivo móvil una identidad de un primer proveedor de ubicación (S802); consultar a un servidor de ubicación local (312) para obtener la autorización a un primer servidor de ubicación (320) asociado con el primer proveedor de ubicación (S804) con un mensaje, con dicho mensaje que incluye la identidad del primer proveedor de ubicación, con el primer servidor de ubicación que proporciona servicios a una primera área de servicio que comprende un lugar o edificio; recibir una autorización del servidor de ubicación local (312) para acceder a un segundo servidor de ubicación (330) asociado con un segundo proveedor de ubicación (S806), con el segundo servidor de ubicación que proporciona servicios de ubicación a una segunda área de servicio más grande que la primera área de servicio; consultar la autorización del segundo servidor de ubicación (330) para el primer servidor de ubicación (320, S808); recibir una autorización para acceder al primer servidor de ubicación (320) desde el segundo servidor de ubicación (330, S810); y acceder al primer servidor de ubicación (320) para recibir servicios de ubicación (S812).

Abstract: Techniques described herein are directed toward enabling location support for 5G New Radio (NR) wireless access by a user equipment (UE) by utilizing existing LTE location support. More specifically, LTE positioning protocol (LPP) messages may be communicated between a UE with NR wireless access and a location server (e.g. an LMF) in a 5G Core Network via an NG-RAN. The LPP messages may support RAT-independent and E-UTRA position methods by the UE such as A-GNSS or OTDOA for E-UTRA. The location server may obtain OTDOA related information from eNBs and ng-eNBs supporting LTE wireless access. A UE may request measurement gaps from a 5G base station (e.g. gNB) in order to obtain measurements for RAT-independent and E-UTRA position methods and may request an idle period in order to obtain LTE timing needed for E-UTRA measurements.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting positioning for terminals in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, positioning may be supported by a location server that can reside in different entities. In one design, the location server may obtain positioning information (e.g., measurements) for a target device via a common positioning protocol. The location server may use the common positioning protocol regardless of where it resides and may communicate with other entities via this protocol. The location server may determine location information (e.g., a location estimate) for the target device based on the positioning information. In another aspect, positioning may be supported by transporting multiple positioning messages together. In yet another aspect, positioning may be supported by transporting a positioning message containing multiple parts defined by different organizations. In yet another aspect, positioning may be supported with shared measurement data units and/or shared assistance data units that may be applicable for different positioning methods.

Abstract: Various techniques are provided for Location Services (LCS) Assistance Data broadcast for example for implementation in LTE and LTE A systems. The embodiments described herein may use the LPP/LPPe positioning protocol by making use of existing unsolicited Provide Assistance Data (PAD) messages. Embodiments avoid the need to define and implement a separate broadcast Assistance Data protocol. Additional exemplary embodiments for scheduling and verifying of the broadcast Assistance Data messages are described herein.
