Abstract
A technique for locating a target tag (110) using a short range radio based positioning system comprising a plurality of localization components (120) is provided, wherein the target tag (110) and the plurality of localization components (120) are configured to perform ranging measurements among each other using short range radio technology. A method implementation of the technique is performed by an orchestration component (100) of the positioning system and comprises sending, using long range radio technology, a ranging plan to the target tag (110) and one or more of the plurality of localization components (120), the ranging plan instructing the target tag (110) and the one or more of the plurality of localization components (120) to perform, using the short range radio technology, ranging measurements among each other enabling to locate the target tag (110).
