Muting pattern configuration options for downlink positioning reference signals (PRS)

Abstract:

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a user equipment (UE) receives, from a transmission point, a first positioning reference signal (PRS) muting pattern for a first subgroup of PRS resources of a first PRS resource set, wherein the first PRS muting pattern comprises a plurality of N bits representing a plurality of N PRS occasions of the first subgroup of PRS resources, wherein each bit of the plurality of N bits represents a corresponding PRS occasion of the plurality of N PRS occasions of each PRS resource of the first subgroup of PRS resources, and wherein the plurality of N PRS occasions comprises a plurality of active PRS occasions of the first subgroup of PRS resources, and measures, during at least one of the plurality of active PRS occasions of the first subgroup of PRS resources, PRS received from the transmission point.
