Abstract
A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for transmitting Uplink (UL) signals for positioning purpose in a wireless communications network is provided. The UE receives (302) from a second network node, a UL signal switching configuration, and a UL signal configuration to transmit UL signals for positioning purpose on one or more carriers where the UE does not transmit user data. The UE further receives (303) from the second network node a UL signal switching order. The UE then switches (304) to at least one carrier where the UE does not transmit user data, to transmit the UL signals for positioning purpose. The UE then switches back (305) to a carrier where the UE transmits user data.
