Abstract
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described herein for enabling positioning, for example, in unlicensed spectrum. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may monitor for reference signals (e.g., positioning reference signals) in the unlicensed spectrum. The WTRU may fallback to a different positioning configuration. For example, the WTRU may fallback to monitor for reference signals in the unlicensed spectrum within a discovery reference signal window. For example, the WTRU may fallback to monitor for reference signals in a licensed spectrum. The WTRU may determine to fallback to a different positioning configuration, for example, based on whether reference signals are determined to be missing (e.g., consecutive missing reference signals).
