SIDELINK ANGULAR-BASED AND SL RRM-BASED POSITIONING
An apparatus 1100 for localizing a target UE (605,805) sidelink ("SL") positioning includes a processor 1105 configured to cause the target UE (605,805) to receive from a sidelink configuration source (610 or 635) SL PRS assistance data associated with SL reference signal transmissions e.g., beam transmissions (620a-620b), transmitted from one or more SL signal transmitting devices (e.g., 610, 615, 630). The target UE (605,805) receives transmitted SL signal information from the one or more SL signal transmitting devices (610, 615, 630) and performs SL signal angle of arrival ("AoA") measurements or reference signal received power ("RSRP") measurements for deriving angle of departure (AoD) mapped to the received SL RSRP measurements or performs SL radio resource management measurements ("SL-RMM") for determining an estimated location of the target UE (605,805) using SL-AoD, SL-AoA, SL-RMM positioning techniques or combinations thereof.
