SIDELINK POSITIONING: SWITCHING BETWEEN ROUND-TRIP-TIME AND SINGLE-TRIP-TIME POSITIONING

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and devices for sidelink positioning determination and communication can employ techniques including obtaining, at a first sidelink-enabled device, data from one or more data sources indicative of one or more criteria for using either round-trip time (RTT)-based positioning of a target node or single-sided (SS)-based positioning of the target node. The techniques also include selecting, with the first sidelink-enabled device, a positioning type from the group may comprise of RTT-based positioning and SS-based positioning, based on the data. The techniques also include sending a message from the first sidelink-enabled device to a second sidelink-enabled device, where the message includes information indicative of the selected positioning type.
