1. A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
receiving, via first frequency ranges and first time periods, a plurality of sidelink control blocks that each indicate a sidelink positioning reference signal burst pattern for one or more sidelink UEs, wherein each of the plurality of sidelink control blocks comprises a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) sidelink control information-1 (SCI-1), a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) sidelink control information-2 (SCI-2) that indicates the sidelink positioning reference signal burst pattern, and one or more demodulation reference signals (DMRSs);
receiving, within a second frequency range and during a second time period, a plurality of multiplexed sidelink positioning reference signals from the one or more sidelink UEs in accordance with the sidelink positioning reference signal burst patterns; and
determining a position of the UE based at least in part on the receiving of the plurality of multiplexed sidelink positioning reference signals.
