Abstract

A positioning server may acquire at least one candidate AP set from an initial AP set, wherein each of the at least one candidate AP set includes a preset number of APs enclosing a terminal which is to be positioned. The positioning server may select a target AP set from the at least one candidate AP set, wherein a distance from each of the APs included in the target AP set to the terminal is less than a preset threshold. The positioning server may determine the preset number of APs included in the target AP set as positioning APs for positioning the terminal.
