Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more particularly, to an apparatus for positioning a user equipment and method thereof. The present invention includes receiving, from a plurality of base stations including a serving cell, a predetermined number of consecutive positioning subframes in a radio frame at a predetermined period, each of the consecutive positioning subframe including a reference signal, measuring a time of arrival of the positioning subframes by using the reference signal, and transmitting a result of the measured time of arrival of the positioning subframe to the serving cell, wherein the predetermined period is set to be larger than a generation period of the reference signal and wherein sequences of the reference signals included in the consecutive positioning subframes are different from each other.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for positioning a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving, by the UE from a plurality of base stations, positioning subframes including reference signals; and measuring, by the UE, a timing difference between a time of arrival of a positioning subframe of one of the plurality of base stations and a time of arrival of a positioning subframe of another of the plurality of base stations, wherein the…
