NEW RADIO (NR) DOWNLINK (DL) POSITIONING REFERENCE SIGNAL (PRS) DESIGN RESOURCE ALLOCATION AND MAPPING IN NR POSITIONING

摘要

Devices and methods provide for transmitting downlink (DL) positioning reference signals (PRSs) in a wireless system. A DL PRS resource pool is configured and divided into a plurality of DL PRS resource sets. The DL PRS resource pool includes a periodically repeated amount of resources dedicated for DL PRS transmission by a plurality of gNBs in the wireless communication system. The plurality of DL PRS resource sets correspond to one or more gNB of the plurality of the gNBs. The DL PRSs are encoded for transmission on configured DL PRS resources within the plurality of DL PRS resource sets.
