Abstract:
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a wireless user equipment (UE) establishing and utilizing a reference timing for a carrier or cell with multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs). A UE may receive a downlink signal on each of a plurality of component carriers (CCs), and determine respective timing events (e.g., slot boundaries, subframe boundaries, etc.) corresponding to each of the plurality of CCs. The UE may then determine a reference time for a first CC of the plurality of CCs. This reference time corresponds to a function of two or more timing events corresponding to different TRPs utilizing the first CC. The UE then determines a relative timing difference between the plurality of CCs based on this determined reference time. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described, including determining and utilizing a reference time on an uplink CC.
Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) transmits capability information indicating a maximum number of downlink resources for both positioning reference signal (PRS) resources and downlink resources for one or more second downlink channels or signals that the UE is capable of processing per unit of time, receives, from a serving transmission-reception point (TRP), a configuration of one or more downlink resources for the one or more second downlink channels or signals, wherein a number of the one or more downlink resources is less than the maximum number, and receives, from a location server, a configuration of one or more PRS resources for the serving TRP, one or more neighboring TRPs, or both, wherein a number of the one or more PRS resources is less than the maximum number.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a set of resources, in a set of physical multicast channel symbols, for receiving a first type of reference signal and a second type of reference signal. The UE may receive one or more reference signal transmissions in accordance with the set of resources. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
A measurement period in which a User Equipment (UE) can be configured to take Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) measurements may include receiving PRS resources of a plurality of Positioning Frequency Layers (PFLs). To do so, the UE may tune (RF) circuitry of the UE from an active Bandwidth Part (BWP) to a frequency band of the at least one PFL, receive a plurality of PRS resources of a plurality of PFLs from one or more network nodes, and subsequent to receiving the plurality of PRS resources, re-tune the RF circuitry of the UE to the active BWP. The UE can then determine PRS measurements based on the plurality of PRS resources.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) configured for position determination receives positioning assistance data from a location server that is positioning method specific and provides information related to the prioritization of one or more of frequency layers, transmission points (TRPs), Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) resource sets, and PRS resources or a combination thereof. The positioning assistance data may be generated by the location server in response to the UE measurement capabilities. The UE determines a prioritization for PRS measurements based at least on one or more orderings of the information for the frequency layers, the TRPs, the PRS resource sets, or the PRS resources in the positioning assistance data, or a combination thereof and the positioning method. Downlink PRS are measured by the UE based on the prioritization.

Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a network node performs one or more positioning measurements of one or more types of positioning measurements of one or more reference signals, and reports, to a positioning entity, the one or more positioning measurements and one or more measurement quality values representing a measurement quality of the one or more positioning measurements, the one or more measurement quality values based on measurement quality reporting parameters, wherein the measurement quality reporting parameters comprise a minimum error value, a maximum error value, a number of bits used for the one or more measurement quality values, a scaling function or an identifier of the scaling function, or any combination thereof.
Abstract:
A base station may calculate a scheduling value based on at least one of a number of groups associated with a set of UEs operating on a cell provided by the base station a radio frame number, or a subframe number. The base station may send, based on the calculated scheduling value, at least one NRS in at least one PO on a narrowband control channel. A UE may receive, from the base station providing the cell, information associated with at least one PO for the UE. The UE may determine, based on the received information, scheduling information associated with at least one NRS in the at least one PO. The UE may detect the at least one NRS in the at least one PO on a narrowband control channel when the determined scheduling information indicates the at least one NRS is in the at least one PO.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for selectively clipping waveforms prior to transmission in a multi-carrier wireless communication system is provided. The design includes estimating peak values of the composite multi-carrier signal, determining a local threshold set including one local threshold for each carrier based on a configurable total threshold representing a maximum aggregate signal level for a sum of all signals to be transmitted over the multiple carriers, and clipping one signal to be transmitted over one carrier when the signal exceeds a corresponding local threshold and a sum of all signals to be transmitted over multiple carriers exceed the total threshold. Alternately, the design may include estimating peak signal values for signals to be transmitted in the multi-carrier system, and selectively clipping any signal wherein at least one peak signal value exceeds a local threshold and peak signal values for a sum of all signals to be transmitted exceed a global threshold.
Abstract:
A method for interference reduction is described. The method is implemented in a wireless device. It is determined that a page is going to be received via a secondary receiver. It is also determined that a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) image from a transmitter will cause interference with the secondary receiver when the page is received. A sampling frequency of the DAC for the transmitter is changed so that there are not any DAC images from the transmitter that will cause interference with the secondary receiver.
