Abstract
Methods, devices and systems for determining positions of user equipments (UEs) based on uplink position signals are described. Cooperating base stations measure received positioning signals and report measurements to serving base stations. Cooperating base stations can also adapt resource allocation to mitigate interference on the uplink to positioning signals. Cooperation between base stations can be coordinated via inter-base station links, e.g., X2 interfaces in LTE systems.
