NAVIGATION AND POSITIONING SYSTEM USING RADIO BEAM SUPPORT INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A mobile device, comprising:
- a memory to store a set of instructions; and
a hardware processor configured to execute the set of instructions to;
obtain beam support information of a plurality of cells;
perform measurements of one or more signals at the mobile device based on the beam support information of the plurality of cells to support a location determination operation for the mobile device; and
transmit results of the measurements of the one or more signals to at least one of a location server or to a base station to support the location determination operation.

Abstract
Methods and systems for wireless communication are provided. In one example, a mobile device is configured to: obtain beam support information of a plurality of cells; perform measurements of one or more signals at the mobile device based on the beam support information of the plurality of cells to support a location determination operation for the mobile device; and transmit results of the measurements of the one or more signals to at least one of a location server or to a base station to support the location determination operation. The beam support information may include: a number of beams supported at each cell of the plurality of cells, information to identify each beam of the number of beams supported at the each cell, beam width information of the each beam, and/or Positioning reference Signals (PRS) codebook information which encapsulates the beams which are enabled along various elevation and azimuth angles.
