    Abstract: A network element estimates a position of a user equipment served by a first network and a second network. At the network element, at least one memory and computer program code are configured to, with at least one processor, cause the network element to: determine first position measurement information for the user equipment in the first network; obtain position assistance data associated with the second network, the position assistance data including at least second position measurement information for the user equipment in the second network; obtain frequency offset information and time offset information for transmissions in the first network and transmissions in the second network; and estimate a position of the user equipment based on the first position measurement information, the second position measurement information, the frequency offset information and the time offset information.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for multi-link establishment for sidelink (SL) enhancement. A method may include transmitting, to a user equipment, a coordination request for communication over a plurality of beams. Beamformed reference signals may be exchanged with the user equipment identifying corresponding beams of the apparatus and the user equipment. Coordination information comprising at least one of preferred or non-preferred time-frequency-beam resources of the user equipment may be received from the user equipment including preferred or non-preferred radio resources of the user equipment and associated simultaneous links for their communication. At least one of preferred or non-preferred time-frequency-beam resources may be determined for their communication. At least two time-frequency-beam resources associated with different beams of the plurality of beams may be selected based on the at least one of determined preferred or non-preferred time-frequency-beam resources of the apparatus. Data in the selected at least two time-frequency-beam resources associated with different beams of the plurality of beams may be transmitted to the user equipment.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer programs are provided for SRS for positioning resource overhead reduction in multi-RTT. A method for a UE includes receiving an initial configuration of a plurality of sounding reference signal for positioning resources; measuring a downlink positioning reference signal received from one or more cells; determining one or more transmission beams based on reception beams used for receipt of the downlink positioning reference signal from the one or more cells; wherein the determining of the one or more transmission beams comprises a reduction of at least one beam resource associated with a sounding reference signal for positioning; and transmitting an updated sounding reference signal for positioning configuration with information about the determined one or more transmission beams. Methods are also provided for a radio node and for an LMF.
