Notably, Release-16(Rel-16) augmented support for enhanced mobile broadband(eMBB) and ultra-reliable low-latency communication(uRLLC), particularly within complex indoor settings. To further meet the diverse application needs of positioning scenarios, the 3GPP standards for Release-17(Rel-17) and Release-18(Rel-18) propose new enhancement measures to continuously provide more accurate positioning services. In this paper, the scholarly discourse on 5G positioning was critically examined, providing a systematic review of the 5G positioning standards as delineated in 3GPP's Rel-16 and Rel-17, and extended the discussion to the anticipated enhancements in 5G Rel-18, along with their underlying motivations. Through these discussions, not only a comprehensive perspective on the current development of 5G positioning technology was provided but also forward-looking analysis and predictions for the evolution of positioning technology in the upcoming 3GPP Release-19(Rel-19) was offered. Additionally, it serves as a reference for researchers interested in understanding the development of positioning within the standard framework in the field of 5G indoor positioning, which holds significant meaning for promoting research and application of 5G positioning technology.展开更多

The key features of the proposed scheme are： it can improve performance of the frequency synchronization through oversampling of the SCH, it can support a large number of target cells by modulating a cell-specific pilot sequence over two symbols within a subframe, and it can guarantee cell identification performance by maximally ratio combining the frequency domain differential cross-correlation. Simulations show that the proposed scheme has a potential use in 3G LTE.展开更多
