Full Description

ETSI TS 125 305 specifies the stage 2 of the UE Positioning function of UTRAN, which provides the mechanismsto support the calculation of the geographical position of a UE. UE position knowledge can be used for example insupport of Radio Resource Management functions, location-based services for operators, subscribers and third partyservice providers. The purpose of this stage 2 specification is to define the UTRAN UE Positioning architecture,functional entities and operations to support positioning methods. This description is confined to the UTRAN AccessStratum. It does not define nor describe how the results of the UE position calculation can be utilised in the CoreNetwork (e.g. LCS) or in UTRAN (e.g. RRM).

UE Positioning may be considered as a network provided enabling technology consisting of standardised servicecapabilities, which enable the provision of location applications. The application(s) may be service provider specific.The description of the numerous and varied possible location applications which are enabled by this technology areoutside the scope of the present document. However, clarifying examples of how the functionality being described maybe used to provide specific location services may be included.

This stage 2 specification covers the UTRAN positioning methods, state descriptions, and message flows to support UEPositioning.
