Abstract
Disclosed are a positioning method and apparatus, which are used for eliminating a clock skew between base stations and improving the UE positioning accuracy of an UL-TDOA/DL-TDOA positioning technical scheme. The method comprises: determining positioning reference signal configuration information; for a downlink time difference of arrival (DL-TDOA) positioning technical scheme, receiving and measuring downlink positioning reference signals from different base stations on the basis of the positioning reference signal configuration information, determining downlink positioning measurement quantity information, and reporting the downlink positioning measurement quantity information and location information of a reference terminal; and for an uplink time difference of arrival (UL-TDOA) positioning technical scheme, sending an uplink positioning reference signal on the basis of the positioning reference signal configuration information, and sending the location information of the reference terminal.
