Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for User Equipment (UE) positioning for uplink grant resources. In one embodiment, a method performed by a location server includes sending one or more first New Radio Positioning Protocol Annex (NRPPa) messages to a base station that serves a target UE. Herein, the one or more first NRPPa messages include at least an expected periodical reporting of the target UE and provide priority indication associated with positioning requirements of the target UE so as to enable the base station to configure uplink grant resources. Also, the method further includes receiving, from the base station, a second NRPPa message that acknowledges a success or failure of the configured uplink grant resources.
