1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
transmitting, to a network entity, one or more capability messages indicating one or more capabilities of the UE to process positioning reference signals (PRS), wherein the one or more capabilities indicate at least a duration of PRS that the UE can process within a measurement window without a measurement gap, wherein the one or more capabilities indicate a minimum gap between a last repetition of a last PRS resource of a PRS instance and an end of the measurement window, and wherein the UE is not expected to process PRS resources that are closer than the minimum gap to the end of the measurement window; and
performing one or more positioning measurements of one or more PRS resources during the measurement window up to the duration of PRS.
