Multi rtt positioning procedure with timing advance for ntn system

Abstract

In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The UE determines multiple uplink measurement occasions for transmitting multiple reference signals to a satellite in a non-terrestrial network (NTN). The UE generates, based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) location data of the UE and ephemeris data of the satellite, multiple timing advance (TA) reports that are linked to the multiple uplink measurement occasions, respectively. The UE transmits the multiple TA reports to the satellite at multiple time points. The UE transmits the multiple uplink reference signals to the satellite on the uplink measurement occasions.
