Abstract

Disclosed are techniques for identifying beams of interest for position estimation. In an aspect, a first node receives, from a second node, a plurality of beams, determines a time of arrival of each beam, identifies one or more beams of interest for determining a position estimate based on the times of arrival, and sends, to the second node, a report identifying each of the one or more beams of interest. A second node transmits, to a first node, a plurality of beams, receives a report identifying one or more beams of interest for determining a position estimate of the first node, wherein the one or more beams of interest are a subset of the plurality of beams, and transmits, in response to receiving the report, at least one beam carrying position reference signals for the second node in a same direction as the one or more beams of interest.
