Abstract
Examples of the present disclosure relate to User Equipment positioning. Certain examples provide an apparatus (10), for example such as a RAN node (120) or a Location server (140), configured to: determine Position Reference Signal, PRS, configuration information (605, 705) comprising information for enabling a network element, for example such as a UE (110) or a RAN node (120), of a RAN (100) to: send a PRS (200), wherein the PRS comprises: a first portion (201) of the PRS configured to be sent in a first time interval (T1) over a first frequency range (fr1); a second portion (202) of the PRS configured to be sent in a second time interval (T2), different to the first time interval, over a second frequency range (fr2), wherein the second frequency range partially overlaps the first frequency range thereby defining an overlapping frequency range (ofr); and wherein a subrange of frequencies (ufr) of the second frequency range is not used to send the second portion of the PRS; and send, the PRS configuration information to the network element of the RAN.
