Abstract: Disclosed are techniques related to wireless communication system in which a network node (e.g., a base station, gNB, etc.) may be allowed to puncture a reference signal (RS) to deliver high priority data (e.g., URLLC data) to a user equipment (UE) that is not currently being served by the network node. The RS may comprise a puncturable subset and an unpuncturable subset. The puncturable subset may comprise resources of the RS that are allowed to be punctured, and the unpuncturable subset may comprise resources of the RS that are prohibited from being punctured. The network node may transmit the RS such that unpuncturable subset indicates whether or not the puncturable subset of the RS has or has not been punctured. In this way, the network node can quickly inform whether or not the RS has been punctured to carry high priority data.

Abstract: A UE receives a first configuration for at least one RRM measurement gap. The UE receives one or more PRSs prior to the at least one RRM measurement gap. The UE identifies whether a processing availability of the UE during the at least one RRM measurement gap is sufficient to process the one or more PRSs. The UE processes the one or more PRSs, where in response to the processing availability of the UE during the at least one RRM measurement gap, the one or more PRSs are processed during the at least one RRM measurement gap; and in response to lack of the processing availability of the UE sufficient to process the one or more PRSs during the at least one RRM measurement gap, the one or more PRSs are processed, at least in part, outside of the at least one RRM measurement gap.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for combining positioning reference signal (PRS) measurements coherently or non-coherently. An example method for combining positioning reference signal resources includes receiving a plurality of positioning reference signals associated with a positioning reference signal resource set or a transmission/reception point, coherently combining resource elements for two or more of the plurality of positioning reference signals received within a period of time, and non-coherently combining resource elements for two or more of the plurality of positioning reference signals received outside of the period of time.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for determining round-trip times (RTTs) between a user equipment (UE) and multiple base stations. In an aspect, the UE transmits an RTT measurement signal whose arrival time is measured by each of the base stations, and each of the base stations returns an RTT response signal whose arrival times are measured by the UE. In another aspect, the base stations each transmit an RTT measurement signal and the UE returns an RTT response signal. The receiver of the RTT measurement signal may include the measured arrival time in a payload of the RTT Response signal. Alternatively, the measured arrival time(s) of the RTT Measurement signal(s) and the transmission time(s) of the RTT Response signal(s) are sent in a separate message. The RTT signals can be wideband signals using low reuse resources.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a network node performs one or more positioning measurements of one or more types of positioning measurements of one or more reference signals, and reports, to a positioning entity, the one or more positioning measurements and one or more measurement quality values representing a measurement quality of the one or more positioning measurements, the one or more measurement quality values based on measurement quality reporting parameters, wherein the measurement quality reporting parameters comprise a minimum error value, a maximum error value, a number of bits used for the one or more measurement quality values, a scaling function or an identifier of the scaling function, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) transmits, to a network entity, one or more capability messages indicating one or more capabilities of the UE to process positioning reference signals (PRS), the one or more capabilities indicating at least a duration of PRS that the UE can process within a measurement window without a measurement gap, and performs one or more positioning measurements of one or more PRS resources during the measurement window up to the duration of PRS.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) receives reference signal resource configuration for transmitting reference signals for positioning from, e.g., a location server. The UE transmits or attempts to transmit reference signals for positioning to one or more transmission-reception points, such as a gNB. The UE may, however, may be unable to transmit reference signals in accordance with the reference signal resource configuration. For example, the UE may be unable to transmit the reference signals or may transmit the reference signals with lower power or a different spatial relation than configured. The UE may provide a reference signal transmission report indicating that the reference signals were not transmitted according to the reference signal resource configuration. The reference signal transmission report may indicate how the reference signal transmission differs from the reference signal resource configuration and may indicate the reasons that the reference signal transmission differs from the reference signal resource configuration.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a UE or base station performs, during a positioning session, a measurement of a first positioning reference signal (PRS) within a first bandwidth part (BWP), performs, during the positioning session, a measurement of a second PRS within a second BWP, transmits, to a location server, a measurement report including the measurement of the first PRS and the measurement of the second PRS, and transmits, to the location server, an indication of the first BWP, the second BWP, or both.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a base station performs one or more angle-based measurements in a first coordinate system, determines whether to report, to a positioning entity, the one or more angle-based measurements in a local coordinate system (LCS) or a global coordinate system (GCS), and reports the one or more angle-based measurements to the positioning entity in the LCS or the GCS based on the determination. In an aspect, a positioning entity receives, from a base station, one or more angle-based measurements in an LCS of the base station or a GCS, determines whether the one or more angle-based measurements are in the LCS or the GCS, and processes the one or more angle-based measurements based on the determination.
