1. An apparatus, comprising:
a memory to store information; and
processing circuitry coupled with the memory, the processing circuitry configured to:
receive a sequence initialization parameter from a base station, wherein the sequence initialization parameter indicates a value used by the base station to initialize a sequence used to generate a positioning signal, wherein the sequence initialization parameter is transmitted in signaling that is specific to a target user equipment (UE); and
receive the positioning signal from the base station based on the sequence initialization parameter.
