Abstract

Methods and devices are provided for positioning-assisted sensing. A wireless transmit / receive unit (WTRU) receives configuration information from a wireless network to assist in a sensing operation. The WTRU performs sensing measurements and identifies events that trigger positioning-related actions. Upon detecting such an event, the WTRU executes these actions and conducts additional sensing measurements. Events triggering these actions can include changes in measurements, error types, or mobility of the WTRU. The configuration information may include details like sensing target identifiers and positioning information. The WTRU can also transmit assistance information to the network and receive updates, repeating the process until a termination event is detected. Positioning-related actions may involve performing positioning measurements, indicating positioning methods, or applying enhancements like carrier phased positioning. The method ensures accurate and reliable sensing and positioning by dynamically adapting to detected events and updating measurements accordingly.
