Abstract
Apparatus, methods and computer program products for user equipment positioning solutions and related signalling. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least send (550), to a network node of a communication network, at least one signaling configuration with at least one set periodicity, wherein the at least one signaling configuration is for use at the network node in calculating at least position information for relaying to the communication network at least for positioning support of the apparatus, and receive (570) the positioning support from the communication network in response to the at least one signaling configuration.
