LTE Release 9 adds several new features to LTE, such as evolved MBMS (eMBMS), dual-layer beamforming (transmission mode 8) and positioning support. To support network-based positioning estimation, new reference signals known as positioning reference signals (PRS) have been introduced.
This webinar covers the technological background of the different positioning methods supported in LTE in addition to Assisted GPS (A-GPS). This includes observed time difference of arrival (OTDOA) based methods such as PRS as well as enhanced cell ID based positioning. The webinar offers insights on new test requirements for LTE-capable terminals and presents related test solutions developed by Rohde & Schwarz.
