POSITION AND UNCERTAINTY DETERMINATION USING STAGGERED RECEPTION OF POSITION REFERENCE SIGNALS

摘要

Arrangements are detailed herein for determining a position and/or uncertainty of position of a mobile device. A plurality of positioning reference signals (PRSs) may be received by a mobile device. The plurality of PRSs may be transmitted at different times, separated by a predefined time interval, by multiple eNBs of a mobile network. Time of arrival values in relation to a received PRS that is used as a reference PRS may be determined. The time of arrival values for at least the subset of the received plurality of PRSs may be projected to the occasion of the reference PRS using the predefined time interval to create a set of projected time of arrival values.
