Original Abstract Submitted

The technology of this application relates to a communication method and a communication apparatus used for positioning. The method includes a positioning device sending a request to an access network device, where the request is used to request information about a cell type of the access network device, and the cell type includes an indoor cell or an outdoor cell, or the cell type includes any one of: a macro cell, a micro cell, or a lampsite cell. The positioning device receives the information about the cell type from the access network device. The request may be sent to the access network device by using a transmission reception point (TRP) information request message, and the information about the cell type may be received by using a TRP information response message.
