METHOD AND DEVICE FOR POSITIONING UTILIZING BEAM INFORMATION

Abstract:

A wireless communications device (100) includes a wireless interface (122) for conducting wireless communications with one or more network nodes (110) of a wireless communications network (102). The wireless communications device (100) further includes a control circuit (118) configured to receive a plurality of reference signals transmitted by the one or more network nodes (110), measure the plurality of reference signals to generate a plurality of positioning measurements, associate the plurality of positioning measurements with beam information, and select a set of positioning measurements with associated beam information for determining a positioning estimate of the wireless communications device (100).
