Original Abstract Submitted

A method for performing wireless communication by a first device, and an apparatus supporting same are provided. The method may comprise the steps of: transmitting, to a base station, information related to a sidelink (SL) positioning group; receiving, from the base station, information related to an SL positioning reference signal (PRS) resource; and transmitting or receiving an SL PRS on the basis of the SL PRS resource, wherein the SL PRS is a reference signal for positioning performed between multiple devices in the SL positioning group, and the SL PRS resource is configured on the basis of the information related to the SL positioning group.
