Abstract

An apparatus, a system and a method for configuring a User Equipment (UE) position. For example, a UE may be configured to receive a cell ID parameter and a cell size parameter, to configure a cell position based on the cell ID, and to configure the UE position based on the cell size. The UE may be configured, for example, to connect to Access points (APs) of a Wireless local Area Network (WLAN) in its close vicinity, e.g., based on the determined position of the UE.
