A position estimate (e.g., for a UE 102) may be referred to by other names, such as a location estimate, location, position, position fix, fix, or the like. A position estimate may be geodetic and comprise coordinates (e.g., latitude, longitude, and possibly altitude) or may be civic and comprise a street address, postal address, or some other verbal description of a location. A position estimate may further be defined relative to some other known location or defined in absolute terms (e.g., using latitude, longitude, and possibly altitude). A position estimate may include an expected error or uncertainty (e.g., by including an area or volume within which the location is expected to be included with some specified or default level of confidence).
FIG. 5 is a diagram 500 showing exemplary timings within an RTT occurring during a wireless probe request and a response between a transmitter 502 and a receiver 504. For a network centric (UE-assisted) RTT determination, the transmitter 502 may correspond to a network node (e.g., any of the gNodeBs 202-206) and the receiver 504 may correspond to the UE 102. For a UE centric RTT determination, the transmitter 502 may correspond to the UE 102 and the receiver 504 may correspond to the network node. In an aspect, the response may take the form of an acknowledgement packet (ACK); however, any type of response packet would be consistent with various aspects of the disclosure. For example, a Request to Send (RTS) transmit packet and/or Clear to Send (CTS) response packet may be suitable.
