A method of transmitting a sounding reference signal (SRS) for positioning, the method comprising:
- obtaining, at a user equipment (UE), a plurality of SRS transmission parameters;
- transmitting SRS for positioning from the UE in accordance with the plurality of SRS transmission parameters while the UE is in an inactive state;
- and
- refraining from transmitting, from the UE, the SRS for positioning during a guard interval before a beginning of transmission of the SRS for positioning.
