Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method for reporting positioning information by a terminal in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the method comprises: receiving information relating to a plurality of positioning reference signal (PRS) resource sets including a plurality of PRS resources; measuring each of the plurality of PRS resources to acquire pieces of positioning information; and reporting at least one piece of positioning information and information relating to a PRS resource for the at least one piece of positioning information, among the pieces of the positioning information.

Claims (34)

1. A method of performing a measurement by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving first information related to a plurality of positioning reference signal (PRS) resource sets including a plurality of PRS resources;

receiving second information regarding a specific PRS resource set related to the measurement

performing the measurement based on the first information; and

reporting, based on the measurement performed based on a PRS resource set different from the specific PRS resource set, resource information including an identifier (ID) for the PRS resource set.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UE further reports an ID for a transmission and reception point (TRP) assigned the PRS resource set.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising reporting positioning information including a result of the measurement, and

wherein the result of the measurement includes reference signal received powers (RSRPs) or signal to interference and noise ratios (SINRs) for each of the plurality of PRS resources.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the measurement is performed on the PRS resource set based on the PRS resource set including a PRS resource having a highest RSRP among the RSRPs or a PRS resource having a highest SINR among the SINRs.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of PRS resource sets is related to a single transmission and reception point (TRP).

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the UE is capable of communicating with at least one of a UE other than the UE, a network, a base station, and an autonomous vehicle.

7. An apparatus for performing a measurement in a wireless communication system, comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory operably connected to the at least one processor and configured to store instructions causing, when executed, the at least one processor to perform a specific operation;

wherein the specific operation comprises:

receiving first information related to a plurality of positioning reference signal (PRS) resource sets including a plurality of PRS resources;

receiving second information regarding a specific PRS resource set related to the measurement

performing the measurement based on the first information; and

reporting, based on the measurement performed based on a PRS resource set different from the specific PRS resource set, resource information including an identifier (ID) for the PRS resource set.

8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the specific operation further includes reporting an ID for a transmission and reception point (TRP) assigned the PRS resource set.

9. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the specific operation further includes reporting positioning information including a result of the measurement, and

wherein the result of the measurement includes reference signal received powers (RSRPs) or signal to interference and noise ratios (SINRs) for each of the plurality of PRS resources.

10. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the measurement is performed on the PRS resource set based on the PRS resource set including a PRS resource having a highest RSRP among the RSRPs or a PRS resource having a highest SINR among the SINRs.

11. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of PRS resource sets is related to a single transmission and reception point (TRP).

12. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the apparatus is capable of communicating with at least one of a terminal, a network, a base station, and an autonomous vehicle.

13. A user equipment (UE) for performing a measurement in a wireless communication system, comprising:

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one memory operably connected to the at least one processor and configured to store instructions causing, when executed, the at least one processor to perform a specific operation,

wherein the specific operation comprises:

receiving first information related to a plurality of positioning reference signal (PRS) resource sets including a plurality of PRS resources through the at least one transceiver;

receiving second information regarding a specific PRS resource set related to the measurement;

performing the measurement based on the first information; and

reporting, based on the measurement performed based on a PRS resource set different from the specific PRS resource set, resource information including an identifier (ID) for the PRS resource set, through the at least one transceiver.
