Abstract
Disclosed are techniques for supporting positioning. In an aspect, a positioning reference unit (PRU) sends and a location server receives an association request for the PRU. The location server authenticates the PRU and sends to the PRU an association accept indicating an acceptance of association and conditions for performing another association with the location server if the PRU is authenticated, or indicates a rejection of the association if the PRU is not authenticated. The association accept may include an identifier for the location server for the PRU for updating the association with the location server and/or identifiers for one or more additional location servers with which the PRU is to perform separate association. The location server may send to the PRU a disassociation request indicating the PRU is no longer associated and optionally an identifier for another location server with which the PRU should associate.
