Abstract

La présente divulgation se rapporte au domaine technique des communications, et concerne un procédé de positionnement et un dispositif/support de stockage/appareil. Le procédé comprend : la réalisation d'une opération de positionnement sur la base d'une capacité de positionnement d'un UE, la capacité de positionnement comprenant une capacité portant sur le fait que l'UE prend ou non en charge la mesure d'un signal de référence de positionnement de liaison descendante et/ou une capacité portant sur le fait que l'UE prend ou non en charge la transmission d'un signal de référence de positionnement de liaison montante. La présente divulgation concerne un procédé de positionnement pour positionner un UE dans un état non connecté RRC, et résout le problème selon lequel "un dispositif côté réseau ne peut pas déterminer un état RRC d'un UE, amenant l'UE dans un état non connecté RRC à ne pas être positionné avec succès".
