METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR POSITIONING A NODE IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM USING DIFFERENT RAN/RATS

摘要

A method in a positioning node (100) for selecting a positioning method is provided. The positioning node is connected to a plurality of radio access networks of different access technologies and to a plurality of core networks. The positioning node receives (201) from a requesting node, a request for a positioning of a terminal. The request comprises at least one of a plurality of client types, and at least one of a plurality of quality of service parameters. The positioning node then selects (204) at least one positioning method of a plurality of positioning methods of the different plurality of radio access networks and or radio access technologies for positioning the terminal. The selection of the positioning method is based on the received at least one client type and at least one quality of service parameters of the request.
