1. A method, performed by a user equipment (UE), of associating positioning signals with beams transmitted in a wireless network comprising a location server and a base station, the method comprising:
receiving, from the location server, assistance data comprising:
a configuration of positioning signals to be transmitted by the wireless network; and
information identifying at least one relationship between:
one or more positioning beams that carry the positioning signals, and
one or more radio resource management (RRM) beams that carry RRM signals; and
receiving, from the base station, the positioning signals via the one or more positioning beams based on the at least one relationship between the one or more positioning beams and the one or more RRM beams.
