Abstract:
A method, apparatus, and system are provided for facilitating positioning based on signal correlation function characteristic feedback. In an embodiment, the method may involve steps performed by a network node in communication with a 5 wireless communication device (WCD) and a plurality of base stations. The network node receives, from the WCD, location information including position reference signal (PRS) correlation function characteristics of a cross-correlation between a received downlink signal and a transmitted PRS for each base station from the plurality of base stations. The network node determines a position of the WCD using 0 the PRS correlation function characteristics. The WCD may initiate the transmission of the PRS correlation function characteristics on its own, or in response to a request to do so from the network node.

Claim (Index 38):
A wireless communication device (WCD) configured to communicate with a network having a network node and a plurality of base stations, the WCD comprising:\n a processing circuit, a computer readable medium coupled to the processing circuit, said computer readable medium containing instructions executable by the processing circuit, whereby the WCD is operative to:\n determine, a cross-correlation between a received downlink signal and a transmitted Position Reference Signal (PRS) for each base station from the plurality of base stations; \n determine, based on the determined cross-correlation, PRS correlation function characteristics; and \n transmit the PRS correlation function characteristics to the network node.
