Abstract

A UE includes a processor configured to determine whether to prioritize processing of a first reference signal relative to a priority reference that comprises a second reference signal and/or a priority reference channel. The first reference signal comprises a positioning reference signal. To determine whether to prioritize processing the processor is at least one of: configured to determine whether to measure, absent a measurement gap, the first reference signal (a first downlink reference signal) instead of the second reference signal; or configured to determine whether to measure, absent the measurement gap, the first downlink reference signal instead of a downlink channel; or configured to determine whether to transmit the first reference signal, comprising a first uplink reference signal, instead of a second uplink reference signal; or configured to determine whether to transmit the first uplink reference signal instead of transmitting on the priority reference channel.
