Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are described for configuring a downlink (DL) reference signal (RS) for an electronic device (ED). Configuration information associated with the DL RS is received in a first communication from a location management function (LMF) via LTE positioning protocol (LPP). In a communication from a serving cell via radio resource control (RRC), an identifier (ID) of the DL RS and a cell ID of a cell that originates the DL RS are received. The configuration information received in the first communication also includes the ID of the DL RS and the cell ID. A sounding reference signal (SRS) is transmitted to the cell identified by the cell ID, according to path loss (PL) information or spatial domain transmission filter (TF) information associated with the DL RS.
