Typical Applications and Network Topology of 5G Positioning

This paper focuses on the analysis of classified application scenarios in 5G positioning. As a result of distinguishing requirements of various businesses, 5G positioning has developed a series of specific techniques to meet these demands. Two types of application functions include business and management functions. A potential network topology for 5G positioning is proposed in order to meet the characteristics and requirements of high-accuracy mobile positioning under the basic frame of 5G communications. Both properties of integration and localization has become primary driving forces of 5G positioning.
