    Abstract: A computer-readable storage medium stores instructions to configure a UE for NR positioning in a 5G NR network, and to cause the UE to perform operations including decoding configuration signaling received from a location and management function (LMF) node of the 5GNR network. The configuration signaling includes a positioning reference signal (PRS) measurement configuration. A number of measurement samples per a successful measurement reporting can be indicated by the PRS measurement configuration which depends on a specific conditions (e.g., PRS bandwidth, propagation channel, and SINR). A PRS received from a base station is decoded. Downlink PRS (DL-PRS) positioning measurements is performed based on the PRS. The DL-PRS positioning measurements are encoded for transmission to the LMF node using the number of measurement samples.

    Abstract: An apparatus and system for use of a pre-configured gap are described. The network signals a preconfigured gap via radio resource control (RRC) signaling and follows a bandwidth part (BWP) to activate/deactivate the gap upon BWP switching. The RRC signaling indicates whether a measurement gap is a pre-configured gap. Pre-configured frequency range 1 (FR1) and FR2 gaps are able to be configured simultaneously using RRC signaling. Similarly, legacy gaps and pre-configured gaps are able to be configured simultaneously using RRC signaling. The pre-configured gap may be autonomously or implicitly activated triggered by downlink control information (DCI) or timer-based BWP switching—in some cases under predetermined network conditions.

    Abstract: Various embodiments herein provide techniques for positioning measurements in a wireless cellular network when a user equipment (UE) is in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state or a RRC idle state. For example, the UE may transmit a sounding reference signal (SRS) for positioning measurements while the UE is in the RRC inactive state or RRC idle state. The SRS may be a semi-persistent SRS and may be transmitted after an activation delay from receipt of a message (e.g., medium access control (MAC) control element (CE)) that activates the SRS. Additionally, or alternatively, the UE may perform a positioning reference signal (PRS) measurement while in the RRC inactive state or the RRC idle state. The PRS measurement may have a reduced number of measurement samples. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
