Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) transmits a first signal for positioning (RS-P) (e.g., SRS, etc.) on a first link from the UE to a wireless network node (e.g., BS, UE, etc.). The UE receives, from the wireless network node, location assistance data that comprises information that indicates a line of sight (LOS) condition associated with the first link. The UE measures a second RS-P on a second link from the wireless network node to the UE that is reciprocal to the first link. The UE performs one or more positioning measurements, determines a location estimate of the UE, or both, based in part on the reception of the second RS-P on the second link and the indicated LOS condition, the indicated LOS condition associated with the second link based on link reciprocity between the first and second links.
