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), the one or more capabilities indicating at least a duration of PRS that the UE can process within a measurement window without a measurement gap; and
performing one or more positioning measurements of one or more PRS resources during the measurement window up to the duration of PRS, wherein the duration of PRS is related to a PRS instance length, the measurement window is related to a PRS periodicity and wherein a ratio of the PRS instance length to the PRS periodicity is equal to a ratio of a measurement gap length to a measurement gap repetition periodicity that the UE can support when measurement gaps are configured.
