10. A method comprising:
generating a transmit timing error group (Tx TEG) based on a time delay of a transmit (Tx) signal, wherein the time delay is a time measured from generation of the Tx signal at a baseband processor to a time of transmission of the Tx signal by a Tx antenna of a user equipment (UE);
determining a timing error group (TEG) index corresponding to the generated Tx TEG;
reporting an association information of sounding reference signal (SRS) resources for positioning with the Tx TEG index; and
transmitting the SRS resources for 5G node B (gNB) measurement.
