| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to the field of communications network technologies, and discloses a positioning apparatus and method, which are used to resolve a problem of locating a terminal when multiple nodes that belong to a same cell serve the same terminal. In embodiments of the present invention, a sending module sends auxiliary data information to a terminal, where the auxiliary data information is information required by the terminal to perform measurement on positioning nodes, where the auxiliary data information includes positioning node index numbers of the positioning nodes; a receiving module receives a positioning measurement result sent by the terminal, and provides the positioning measurement result to a positioning module, where the positioning measurement result includes a positioning measurement result corresponding to each positioning node index number, or a positioning measurement result that a reference positioning node index number separately corresponds to other positioning node index numbers; and the positioning module determines a location of the terminal by using the positioning measurement result. The solutions provided in the embodiments of the present invention are suitable for use in locating a terminal. |
