RADIO RESOURCE CONTROL (RRC) INACTIVE AND RRC IDLE MODE POSITIONING CONFIGURATION

Abstract:

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) may transmit, to a network entity comprising a location server and/or base station, a positioning capability report that includes a set of positioning capability parameters for a radio resource control (RRC) connected state. The UE may enter an RRC unconnected state, the RRC unconnected state comprising an RRC inactive state or an RRC idle state. The UE may perform positioning reference signal (PRS) processing during the RRC unconnected state according to one or more positioning capability parameters from the set of positioning capability parameters for the RRC connected state.
