Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic device, a User Equipment (UE), a method, and a computer readable storage medium. According to the present invention, a method for determining location of a positioning reference signal (PRS) comprises: obtaining a subcarrier interval of a resource block (RB); and determining a time-frequency location of the PRS in the RB according to the subcarrier interval. The electronic device, the UE, the method, and the computer readable storage medium according to the present invention can be used for designing the PRS with respect to an NR communication system more reasonably, so as to optimize the positioning of the UE.

Dependent claims

A user equipment comprising:

a wireless transceiver;
and
processing circuitry configured to:
receive a Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) within a Resource Block (RB) on each of a plurality of different beams, each PRS received from a respective one of a plurality of transmit and receive ports (TRPs);
based on the received PRSs, determine beam transmission angle information of each TRP of the plurality of TRPs;
send the beam transmission angle information of each TRP to a positioning server to enable the positioning server to determine a position of the user equipment.
