Abstract
The apparatus may be a wireless device or wireless device component configured to obtain APC information for a plurality of frequencies associated with an antenna of the wireless device and measure a set of PS at each of the plurality of frequencies via the antenna. The apparatus may further be configured to identify a location and an orientation of the wireless device based on the APC information and the set of PS, and output an indication of the location and the orientation of the wireless device.
Claims30
An apparatus for wireless communication at a wireless device, comprising:
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the at least one memory and the at least one processor, individually or in any combination, is configured to:
