MUMBAI, India, June 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647072177 A) filed by Qualcomm Incorporated on June 10, 2026, for Signaling For Sidelink Positioning Reference Signal Frequency Hopping For Specified Devices.

Inventors include Manolakos, Alexandros; Kumar, Mukesh; Sarkis, Gabi; and Akkarakaran, Sony.

The application for the patent was published on June 19, 2026, under issue no. 25/2026.

Abstract: Aspects presented herein may improve the overall performance and reliability for sidelink positioning that involves a UE that is just capable of operating in a subset of subchannels (or sub-bands) of a sidelink resource pool. In one aspect, a UE obtains a configuration of a set of sub-bands for a resource pool related to sidelink positioning. The UE operates in a subset of sub-bands of the set of sub-bands for the resource pool related to the sidelink positioning. The UE transmits, via at least one first sub-band in the subset of sub-bands, sidelink control information (SCI) to reserve at least one resource for a transmission of sidelink (SL)-positioning reference signal (PRS) (SL-PRS), where the at least one resource comprises (1) the first sub-band or (2) at least one second sub-band in the subset of sub-bands.
