PRAF
Positioning Radio Assistance Function

The Positioning Radio Assistance Function provides additional support for the PRCF (Positioning Radio Coordination Function) when radio coordination is distributed among multiple network elements. A particular function of the PRAF for network based position methods is to induce positioning signals from the target mobile. For mobile based and mobile assisted position methods, the PRAF can induce position signals from the network or from some other external reference source.
