    Abstract: Techniques for supporting positioning for a terminal (sometimes referred to herein as a target device) in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, positioning for a target device includes receiving a Request Location Information message, for a server, that includes a first information element and a second information element, wherein the first information element includes at least one field that is common to multiple positioning methods and wherein the at least one field comprises a quality-of-service (QoS), an indication of whether periodic location information is requested, an indication of whether triggered location information is requested, or any combination thereof, wherein the second information element includes at least one field that is specific to a first positioning method, and performing positioning in response to the Request Location Information message.

    Abstract: Techniques for supporting positioning for a terminal (sometimes referred to herein as a target device) in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, positioning for a target device includes transmitting a Request Assistance Data message to a location server, the Request Assistance Data message indicating at least one positioning method from a plurality of supported positioning methods. The Request Assistance Data message comprises common parameters that are applicable to all positioning methods indicated in the Request Assistance Data message. The common parameters comprise a serving cell identifier. Positioning for the target device further includes receiving assistance data sent in response to the Request Assistance Data message, and performing positioning based on the received assistance data.

    Abstract: In a wireless communication system, user equipment (UE) has autonomy provided by one or more set of rules to handle processing during a measurement gap. UE can ignore or use only a portion of the whole measurement gap if not needed. Thereby, an urgent need for remaining tuned to source carrier frequency can be supported, such as utilizing Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure. UE can also choose to tune to a target carrier frequency supporting timely handovers. Depending on the type of processing required (download shared channel (DL-SCH, UL-SCH, TTI bundling, RACH or SR), the UE may store requests and process the measurements during the gap or ignore the gap measurement as if there were no gaps.
