    摘要: Techniques are provided for facilitating simultaneous uplink sounding reference signal transmissions from user equipment. In relation to a base station, a method includes causing transmission of configuration indication state (TCI-state) information to be provided to at least one user equipment (UE). The TCI-state information includes information regarding a current TCI-state. In conjunction with the TCI-state information, the method includes causing one or more initialization parameters specific to the TCI-state to be provided for at least one uplink sounding reference signal (UL SRS) transmission with comb-offset hopping and/or cyclic-shift hopping. Corresponding methods, apparatus and computer program products are also provided for a base station and user equipment.

    摘要: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for facilitating triggered PDCCH-ordered PRACH transmissions in multi-TRP scenarios. One method may include a UE determining that a first TCI state is to be applied in a first slot and a second TCI state is to be applied in a second slot. The first TCI state is associated with a first TAG ID, a second TCI state is associated with a second TAG ID different than the first TAG ID, and the second slot is succeeding and adjacent to the first slot. The method may further include, based upon the determining, determining a third slot. The second TCI state is firstly to be applied in the third slot. The method may further include applying the second TCI state from the third slot onward.

    摘要: There are provided measures for efficient provision of positioning reference signal transmissions. Such measures exemplarily comprise, at of a location service control entity in a mobile network providing positioning reference signals for location determination, deciding to suspend positioning reference signal transmission using a first positioning reference signal resource, and configuring, upon a result of said deciding to suspend said positioning reference signal transmission, an access node supplying at least one location determination target with said positioning reference signal transmission using said first positioning reference signal resource, to suspend said positioning reference signal transmission.
