Abstract
Techniques for a high-accuracy determination the position of a light user equipment (UE) using a single base station are presented. This is accomplished by leveraging communications with a premium UE having a known location relative to the base station. Wireless reference signals measured by the light UE and premium UE, along with a reference signal from the light UE to the premium UE, can be used to determine the position of the light UE geometrically. The determination can be made by the light UE, premium UE, or a location server, depending on desired functionality.
