Abstract

Techniques for improving enhanced cell identification (E-CID) positioning are provided. An example of a method for determining a location of a mobile device according to the disclosure includes generating a plurality of receive beams with a mobile device, receiving, with one or more of the plurality of receive beams, a radio beam transmitted from a base station, such that the radio beam includes a beam identification value, and determining a measurement quantity for the radio beam for each of the one or more of the plurality of receive beams.
