Abstract
This document generally relates to use of intelligent reflecting devices for positioning in wireless communication systems, which may increase the coverage for a wireless access node or base station. During a positioning session, an intelligent reflecting device may reflect a signal to a receiving node. An identity of the intelligent reflecting device may be determined, and a position of the receiving node may be determined based on the identity of the intelligent reflecting device.
Claims24
A method for wireless communication, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a receiving node, a signal reflected by an intelligent reflecting device;
- determining, by a source identification node, an identity of the intelligent reflecting device based on the signal after being reflected by the intelligent reflecting device;
- and
- identifying, by a position determination node, a position of a target node based on the identity of the intelligent reflecting device.
