Abstract
A method and device for a first User Equipment (UE) are disclosed. In one embodiment, the first UE initiates a procedure for establishing a PC5 connection with a second UE. Furthermore, the first UE sends a first PC5 message to the second UE for request of establishment of the PC5 connection in the procedure, wherein the first PC5 message includes a first Sidelink (SL) positioning or ranging related information.
Claims18
A method for a first User Equipment (UE), comprising:
- initiating a procedure for establishing a PC5 connection with a second UE;
- sending a first PC5 message to the second UE for request of establishment of the PC5 connection in the procedure, wherein the first PC5 message includes a first Sidelink (SL) positioning or ranging related parameter indicating the first UE supporting a role of SL target UE;
- and
- performing an SL Positioning Protocol and Ranging or Sidelink Positioning Protocol (SLPP/RSPP) message transfer with the second UE using the established PC5 connection, wherein the SLPP/RSPP message transfer is used for sidelink positioning operation.
1 more element
A first User Equipment (UE), comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory operatively coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute a program code stored in the memory to:
- initiate a procedure for establishing a PC5 connection with a second UE;
- send a first PC5 message to the second UE for request of establishment of the PC5 connection in the procedure, wherein the first PC5 message includes a first Sidelink (SL) positioning or ranging related parameter indicating the first UE supporting a role of SL target UE;
- and
- perform an SL Positioning Protocol and Ranging or Sidelink Positioning Protocol (SLPP/RSPP) message transfer with the second UE using the established PC5 connection, wherein the SLPP/RSPP message transfer is used for sidelink positioning operation.
4 more elements
A method for a second User Equipment (UE), comprising:
- receiving a first PC5 message to perform a procedure for establishing a PC5 connection with a first UE from the first UE, wherein the first PC5 message includes a first Sidelink (SL) positioning or ranging related parameter indicating the first UE supporting a role of SL target UE;
- sending a second PC5 message to the first UE for completing the procedure for establishing the PC5 connection, wherein the second PC5 message includes a second SL positioning or ranging related parameter indicating the second UE supporting a role of SL reference or anchor UE;
- and
- performing an SL Positioning Protocol or Ranging or Sidelink Positioning Protocol (SLPP/RSPP) message transfer with the first UE using the established PC5 connection, wherein the SLPP/RSPP message transfer is used for sidelink positioning operation.
