Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to a location server that transmits a control signaling request to a NTS in a non-terrestrial network, the control signaling requesting an entity type of the NTS, and ephemeris data associated with the NTS. The location server may transmit a control signaling request to a non-terrestrial network configuration entity in the non-terrestrial network, the control signaling requesting an identifier of the NTS, an entity type of the non-terrestrial network configuration entity, and/or a number of non-terrestrial network nodes communicatively connected to the non-terrestrial network configuration entity. The location server receives a control signaling response from the NTS and/or the non-terrestrial network configuration entity, the control signaling response indicating configuration parameter values. The location server then configures positioning assistance data for positioning a UE based in part on the configuration parameter values received in the control signaling response.
