    Abstract: Positioning of a target user equipment (UE) using a mobile anchor node is supported by providing motion information for the mobile anchor node and/or measurement restrictions. The target UE receives motion information for the mobile anchor node, which may be an ordered list of points or, e.g., a motion path. The target UE may generate positioning measurements using the motion information for the mobile anchor node to determine the position of the mobile anchor node when it transmits positioning reference signals (PRS). The target UE may receive an indication of position measurement restriction if the mobile anchor node is moving. The target UE may receive PRS over a plurality of PRS occasions. The target UE may restrict measurement to only one PRS occasion, may generate and separately report measurements for each PRS occasions or may combine a plurality of measurements using filter coefficients provided by a location server.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various techniques for wireless communication, and in particular, carrier-phase based positioning. In an aspect, a position estimation entity may obtain a first differential measurement based on measurement of a first set of positioning reference signal (PRS) resources by a first node and measurement of a second set of PRS resources by a second node, wherein the first set of PRS resources are phase-coherent with the second set of PRS resources. The position estimation entity may obtain a second differential measurement based on measurement of a third set of PRS resources by the first node and measurement of a fourth set of PRS resources by the second node, wherein the third set of PRS resources are phase-coherent with the fourth set of PRS resources. The position estimation entity may determine a positioning estimate of a target node based on the first differential measurement and the second differential measurement.

    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a position estimation entity provides assistance data to sidelink anchors and a UE. The assistance data may include a set of proximity-based sidelink positioning reference signal (PRS) pre-configurations for on-demand PRS position estimation. The target UE transmits a sidelink PRS trigger to trigger an on-demand sidelink PRS position estimation session with a dynamic sidelink anchor group, the sidelink PRS trigger configured to indicate a sidelink zone associated with the UE and a proximity requirement for participation in the on-demand sidelink PRS position estimation. At least one sidelink anchor determines that the proximity requirement to the sidelink zone is satisfied, selects a proximity-based sidelink PRS pre-configuration based on a dynamic proximity to the sidelink zone, and performs a sidelink PRS exchange with the UE.

    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a communications device (e.g., UE, gNB, LMF, etc.) determines a reference geographic coordinate (e.g., local or global coordinate) for a plurality of sidelink zones, wherein boundaries associated with each sidelink zone are defined via a respective sidelink zone identifier that includes one or more geographic offsets relative to the reference geographic coordinate. A UE receives an indication of the reference geographic coordinate, and performs one or more sidelink zone-related operations based on the reference geographic coordinate.
