Original Abstract Submitted
There is provided an apparatus that is caused to: in response to determining that a plurality of access points to be configured to provide positioning reference signals to a user equipment comprises at least one non-terrestrial access point and at least one terrestrial access point: determining, for the at least one non-terrestrial access point, a propagation delay for signalling between said non-terrestrial access point and the user equipment; using the determined propagation delay to select a configuration of at least one of: a duration of a measurement gap at the user equipment in which the user equipment is to perform positioning-related measurements on positioning reference signals transmitted by the plurality of access points, and a transmission time of at least one positioning reference signal to be provided to the user equipment by at least one of the plurality of access points; and signalling the selected configuration.
