Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de transmission de signal de référence de sondage (SRS). Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : un dispositif terminal reçoit des premières informations en provenance d'un dispositif de réseau, les premières informations comprenant des informations d'alternance ; et envoie en alternance des SRS dans un domaine fréquentiel sur la base des premières informations, les SRS étant transmis dans différentes unités de temps par l'intermédiaire du même port d'antenne. L'invention permet de résoudre le problème lié, dans l'état de la technique, au fait qu'un pic latéral peut facilement être incorrectement identifié comme pic principal lorsqu'un port d'antenne occupe le même élément de ressource (RE) dans différentes unités de temps, ce qui permet d'améliorer la précision de mesure de SRS et d'augmenter la précision de positionnement.
