Abstract
A selective positioning reference signal (PRS) aggregation method includes: receiving, at an apparatus, a first PRS extending over a first frequency range; receiving, at the apparatus, a second PRS extending over a second frequency range that is at least partially different from the first frequency range; and providing, by the apparatus, based on a first channel response characteristic corresponding to the first PRS and a second channel response characteristic corresponding to an aggregation of the first PRS and the second PRS, position information based on the first PRS or based on the aggregation of the first PRS and the second PRS.
Claims19
An apparatus comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive wireless signals including a first positioning reference signal (PRS) extending over a first frequency range, and a second PRS extending over a second frequency range that is at least partially different from the first frequency range;
- and
- a processor, communicatively coupled to the receiver, configured to provide, based on a first channel response characteristic corresponding to the first PRS and a second channel response characteristic corresponding to an aggregation of the first PRS and the second PRS, position information based on the first PRS or based on the aggregation of the first PRS and the second PRS.
