Abstract

According to one of the aspects of the proposed technology, there is provided a method for enabling continuation of ongoing positioning measurements for a User Equipment, UE, at handover from a source base station to a separate target base station. The method comprises the steps of obtaining (11) a measurement context associated with the ongoing positioning measurements to enable continued positioning measurements in a target cell of the target base station after the handover has been completed, and participating (12) in continued positioning measurements in the target cell after the handover in response to the measurement context.
