    Abstract: Aspects presented herein may improve the precision and performance of a TDOA-based UE positioning scheme that is associated with an NTN. In one aspect, a UE receives, from a first satellite, a first PRS at a first reception time. The UE receives, from a second satellite, a second PRS at a second reception time and an indication of a transmission-reception time difference, the transmission-reception time difference being a difference between a time the second satellite transmits the second PRS to the UE and a time the second satellite receives an RS from the first satellite. The UE calculates an RSTD for the first PRS and the second PRS based at least in part on the first reception time of the first PRS, the second reception time of the second PRS, and the transmission-reception time difference.

    Abstract: A UE includes a processor configured to: receive, in a primary cell, a dormant indication of a dormant state of a secondary cell; and respond to receiving the dormant indication by implementing the dormant state of the secondary cell by inhibiting monitoring of a physical downlink control channel of the secondary cell; where the processor is configured to respond to a positioning signal including a first portion that is configured within a bandwidth of the secondary cell and that is received while the secondary cell is in the dormant state by: withholding processing of the positioning signal; or withholding processing of the first portion of the positioning signal and processing a second portion, if any, of the positioning signal that is configured outside the bandwidth of the secondary cell; or processing the positioning signal.

    Abstract: A UE includes: a transceiver; a memory; and a processor configured to: receive first and second discontinuous reception configurations for first and second discontinuous reception groups; receive first and second positioning signal configurations for first and second positioning signals associated with the first and second discontinuous reception groups, respectively; measure the first positioning signal during a first active time of the first discontinuous reception group; and measure the second positioning signal during a fixed second active time or during a variable third active time, the fixed second active time having a fixed duration of the second discontinuous reception group and the variable third active time having a variable duration of the second discontinuous reception group.
