An apparatus for determining a position of a user device, UE, in a wireless communication system, the wireless communication system comprising one or more of moving transmission reception points, TRPs, wherein the apparatus is configured to: initiate one or more procedures to perform one or more measurements between the UE and the moving TRP, and to obtain one or more measurement results; and receive at least one message from the moving TRP comprising a position information of the moving TRP; wherein the apparatus is capable to estimate the position of the UE using the measurement result and the position of the moving TRP.

Apparatus for determining user position

The disclosure describes a method for a network entity (NE) to optimize positioning of a user equipment (UE) based on static circumstances and situational/environmental circumstances. The static circumstances may be sensor capabilities and sensor quality related to the UE, radio access network (RAN) capabilities, or general system limitations. The NE may request a quality report from a measurement unit (MU) that indicates the positioning technologies used for such quality reporting. The NE may inform the MU which sensors and technologies to use for monitoring and request a report from these sensors and technologies. The NE may receive results from measurements performed by the MU, and the NE may receive a message including the MU quality report in order to enable the NE to decide on the best positioning method for the UE in the current situation for the indicated sensors and technologies to perform the position calculation.

An apparatus for estimating a physical state of a movable object includes a processor receiving or determining a probability mass function including probabilities for each of a first group of at least two movement classes, wherein the movement models of the first group being determined using sensor data from the inertial measurement unit. The processor receives at least one additional probability mass function associated with a second group of at least two movement classes, wherein the additional probability mass function has been obtained using additional information different from the sensor data. The processor combines the probability mass function and the at least one additional probability mass function to obtain a combined probability mass function over the movement classes of the first group and the second group, selects a movement class having the highest probability from the combined probability mass function, and estimates the physical state of the movable object using a movement model of the selected movement class. Each movement class is either a movement state or a movement model.

The invention concerns a method and a system for determining a game scenario in a sports game, the system including a player module being attachable to a player, an equipment module being attachable to a sports equipment to be used in the sports game, and a computing unit. The computing unit may be configured to receive player based data from the player module and equipment based data from the equipment module, the player based data representing an activity profile of the player and the equipment based data representing a motion profile of the equipment. The computing unit may further be configured to determine, based on the activity profile of the player and on the motion profile of the equipment, one of a plurality of game scenarios involving the player and the equipment.
