Abstract

Positioning user equipment served by a base station in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining a timing value used by the user equipment for timing adjustment of uplink signal transmission and a timing bias used for adjusting the timing value. The method also comprises adjusting the timing value based on the timing bias. The method further comprises determining the position of the user equipment based on the adjusted timing value, wherein the timing bias is associated with at least one difference between at least one timing value obtained from at least one previous user equipment served by the base station and at least one timing value obtained from the base station with respect to the at least one previous user equipment. By means of the method and device, the positioning of the user equipment can be accurately achieved and less overhead could be incurred.
