Abstract

A method for receiving an uplink reference signal sent by a mobile terminal to a network entity through a radio unit connected to an antenna, and used to geolocate the mobile terminal. The method is implemented by the network entity and includes: recording, by way of time of arrival of the reference signal, a time obtained by adding a delay, called a waiting delay, to the time at which the reference signal was sent by the radio unit, the waiting delay being larger in value than a transmit path time of a comparison signal, between the radio unit and the network entity; and sending a message to a geolocation server, including information relating to the recorded time of arrival.
