3  Definitions and Abbreviationsp. 16

3.1  Definitionsp. 16

For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in TR 21.905, TS 36.305, TS 23.271, 38.305 [40] and TS 23.273 apply. Other definitions are provided below.
Anchor carrier:
In NB-IoT, a carrier where the UE assumes that NPSS/NSSS/NPBCH/SIB-NB for FDD or NPSS/NSSS/NPBCH for TDD are transmitted.
Location Server:
a physical or logical entity (e.g., E-SMLC, SUPL SLP, or LMF) that manages positioning for a target device by obtaining measurements and other location information from one or more positioning units and providing assistance data to positioning units to help determine this. A Location Server may also compute or verify the final location estimate.
NB-IoT:
NB-IoT allows access to network services via E-UTRA with a channel bandwidth limited to 200 kHz.
Observed Time Difference Of Arrival (OTDOA):
The time interval that is observed by a target device between the reception of downlink signals from two different TPs. If a signal from TP 1 is received at the moment t1, and a signal from TP 2 is received at the moment t2, the OTDOA is t2 - t1.
Positioning frequency layer:
A positioning frequency layer is defined as a collection of DL-PRS Resource Sets where each DL-PRS Resource Set is in turn a collection of DL-PRS Resources. All DL-PRS Resources from all DL-PRS Resource Sets from the same positioning frequency layer have some common/same DL-PRS parameters viz. DL-PRS subcarrier spacing, DL-PRS Resource bandwidth, DL-PRS start PRB, DL-PRS Point A, DL-PRS Comb size and DL-PRS cyclic prefix.
PRS-only TP:
A TP which only transmits PRS signals or DL-PRS for PRS-based TBS positioning and is not associated with a cell.
Reference Source:
a physical entity or part of a physical entity that provides signals (e.g., RF, acoustic, infra-red) that can be measured (e.g., by a Target Device) in order to obtain the location of a Target Device.
Relative Time Difference (RTD):
The relative time difference between a TRP i and a TRP j, is defined as tj - ti, where ti and tj are defined as the time when TRP i and j transmit the start of one subframe respectively.
Rx Time Delay:
From a signal reception perspective, there will be a time delay from the time when the RF signal arrives at the Rx antenna to the time when the signal is digitized and time-stamped at the baseband.
Rx Timing Error:
Result of Rx Time Delay involved in the reception of a signal before reporting measurements that are obtained from the signal. It is the uncalibrated Rx Time Delay, or the remaining delay after the UE/TRP internal calibration/compensation of the Rx Time Delay, involved in the reception of the DL-PRS/UL SRS signals. The calibration/compensation may also include the calibration/compensation of the relative time delay between different RF chains in the same UE/TRP and may also possibly consider the offset of the Rx antenna phase centre to the physical antenna centre.
Target Device:
the device that is being positioned (e.g., UE or SUPL SET).
Transmission Point (TP):
A set of geographically co-located transmit antennas (e.g. antenna array (with one or more antenna elements)) for one cell, part of one cell or one PRS-only TP. Transmission Points can include base station (eNodeB) antennas, remote radio heads, a remote antenna of a base station, an antenna of a PRS-only TP, etc. One cell can be formed by one or multiple transmission points. For a homogeneous deployment, each transmission point may correspond to one cell.
Transmission-Reception Point (TRP):
A set of geographically co-located antennas (e.g. antenna array (with one or more antenna elements)) supporting TP and/or RP functionality.
TRP Tx Timing Error Group (TRP Tx TEG):
Tx Timing Errors, associated with TRP transmissions on one or more DL-PRS Resources, that are within a certain margin.
Tx Time Delay:
From a signal transmission perspective, the time delay from the time when the digital signal is generated at baseband to the time when the RF signal is transmitted from the Tx antenna.
Tx Timing Error:
Result of Tx Time Delay involved in the transmission of a signal. It is the uncalibrated Tx Time Delay, or the remaining delay after the TRP/UE internal calibration/compensation of the Tx Time Delay, involved in the transmission of the DL-PRS/UL SRS signals. The calibration/compensation may also include the calibration/compensation of the relative time delay between different RF chains in the same TRP/UE and may also possibly consider the offset of the Tx antenna phase centre to the physical antenna centre.
UE Rx Timing Error Group (UE Rx TEG):
Rx Timing Errors, associated with UE reporting of one or more DL measurements, that are within a certain margin.
UE RxTx Timing Error Group (UE RxTx TEG):
Rx Timing Errors and Tx Timing Errors, associated with UE reporting of one or more UE Rx-Tx time difference measurements, which have the 'Rx Timing Errors + Tx Timing Errors' differences within a certain margin.
UE Tx Timing Error Group (UE Tx TEG):
Tx Timing Errors, associated with UE transmissions on one or more UL SRS resources for positioning purpose, that are within a certain margin.
