    Abstract: Antenna hopping techniques for Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) measurements in positioning of a user equipment (UE) include, for each of a plurality of successive measurement instances, taking a set of measurements of a respective set of PRS resources during the respective measurement instance using only one subset of a plurality of subsets of antennas of the UE, such that different subsets of the plurality of subsets of antennas of the UE are used for different measurement instances of the plurality of successive measurement instances. Each subset comprises one or more, but fewer than all, antennas of the UE. Techniques include sending one or more measurement reports from the UE to a location server. Each of the one or more measurement reports may comprise: information indicative of a respective set of measurements, and a timestamp corresponding to the respective measurement instance during which the respective set of measurements were taken.

    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless positioning. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives a request location information message from the network entity, the request location information message including one or more start measurement time parameters indicating a start time of a measurement period during which the UE is expected to perform one or more positioning measurements, and performs the one or more positioning measurements of one or more positioning reference signal (PRS) resources on a first positioning frequency layer during the measurement period, wherein a start of the measurement period is based on the one or more PRS resources, a reception time, and the one or more start measurement time parameters.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Aspects of the disclosure describe narrow beam-based channel access that enables a device to communicate in a shared radio frequency spectrum band without performing channel access procedures. Specifically, aspects of the disclosure describe techniques for defining one or more directional beams as a narrow beam, where the relative narrowness of the beam may be determined in the context of interference (e.g., as opposed to being defined from a geometric perspective). For example, a particular beam may be determined to be a narrow beam, and therefore associated with communications in shared radio frequency spectrum bands without channel access procedures, based on one or more metrics and a number of spatial streams associated with the beam. A device may use such narrow beams for communications without channel access procedures in shared radio frequency spectrum bands.
