Original Abstract Submitted

An example method for distance-dependent positioning of a user device (UE) performed by a location server, the method comprising: sending, to a transmission/reception point (TRP), a first configuration for distance-dependent position reference signal (PRS) resource sets, the distance-dependent PRS resource sets comprising at least: a first PRS resource set for positioning the UE when an estimated distance between the UE and the TRP is within a first range interval. The method also comprises determining the estimated distance between the UE and the TRP, sending, to the UE, a second configuration for determining PRS measurements based on at least one PRS resource set of the distance-dependent PRS resource sets at the TRP, the at least one PRS resource set corresponding to the estimated distance between the UE and the TRP, and receiving, from the UE, the PRS measurements; and determining the position of the UE based on the PRS measurements.
