Method and arrangement for performing positioning

   
   

The invention relates to a method and arrangement for positioning one or more mobile stations, in which the location of the mobile stations is determined in the horizontal direction using at least two radio direction finding stations. Information on the location of each mobile station is maintained on a server. The mobile station measures at least one variable proportional to the location of the mobile station in the vertical direction and signals information on the measurement results to a control unit time-divisionally at the same frequency controlled by the control unit. In the control unit the location of each mobile station is determined in the vertical direction on the basis of the signalled data and the data on the location is conveyed to the server, where the three-dimensional location of the mobile stations is determined. The locations of at least some of the mobile stations are displayed graphically.
