CPC Class H04W

Methods and apparatuses for uplink multi-beam operation. A method for operating a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a base station, an aperiodic reference signal (RS) trigger and, at a later time instant, an uplink (UL) beam indication. The method further includes decoding the aperiodic RS trigger and decoding the UL beam indication. The method includes determining, from the UL beam indication, a transmit spatial filter applied to a signal to be transmitted on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) or a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and transmitting, to the base station, the signal on the PUSCH or the PUCCH. The transmit spatial filter corresponds to a reference RS. The UL beam indication includes a state of a transmit configuration associated with the reference RS.

In a general aspect, a target is localized based on measurements from a measurement device array. In some aspects, range difference values (di) and coordinate vectors (ai) of devices in the measurement device array are obtained. The range difference values are generated based on time difference of arrival measurements of wireless signals between the target device and each of the devices in the measurement device array. A first matrix (A) and a first vector (b) are constructed. The first matrix (A) and the first vector (b) each includes the range difference values and the coordinate vectors. Whether a second vector (y) satisfies a condition set is determined. The condition set includes a first condition (ATA+λD)y=ATb and a second condition vT (ATA+λD)v≥0. A numerical approximation of an optimal solution of the second vector is generated. The target device is localized according to the numerical approximation of the optimal solution.

A positioning method and related devices are provided. The method includes: measuring, by a UE, PRSs sent by a plurality of positioning reference devices to obtain a plurality of PRS measurement results; measuring, by the UE, SPRSs sent by the plurality of positioning reference devices to obtain a plurality of SPRS measurement results; performing, by the UE, a positioning operation based on the plurality of PRS measurement results and the plurality of SPRS measurement results, wherein the positioning operation includes: sending the plurality of PRS measurement results and the plurality of SPRS measurement results to a positioning server, so that the positioning server determines a position of the UE based on the plurality of PRS measurement results and the plurality of SPRS measurement results; or determining, by the UE, the position of the UE based on the plurality of PRS measurement results and the plurality of SPRS measurement results.

Implementations of the disclosed subject matter provide methods of transmitting, from a first user device, an authorization to one or more other user devices to receive one or more images captured by a first sensor of a mobile robot device, where the first user device controls the mobile robot device. The first user device may receive acknowledgement from the one or more other user devices to receive the one or more images captured by the first sensor of the mobile robot device. The mobile robot device may transmit, to the first user device and the one or more other user devices based on the acknowledgement, the one or more first images captured by the first sensor of the mobile robot as the mobile robot device moves within the area based on at least one first control operation received from the first user device.
