An apparatus for determining position information of one or more UEs (User
Equipments), which includes a plurality of Node Bs for transmitting
propagation signals to UEs positioned in a specific cell, and generating
predetermined data for measuring position information of the UEs on the
basis of propagation signals received from the UEs; a GPS (Global
Positioning System) auxiliary information manager for generating and
storing GPS auxiliary information associated with a specific cell using a
GPS satellite signal received via a built-in GPS receiver; and a RNC
(Radio Network Controller) connected to the plurality of Node Bs, for
receiving GPS auxiliary information from the GPS auxiliary information
manager in response to a request signal of at least one Node B from among
the plurality of Node Bs, optimizing the received GPS auxiliary
information for every Node B, selecting the optimized GPS auxiliary
information, and periodically transmitting the selected GPS auxiliary
information to the UEs using a multicast method, in which the Node Bs
broadcast the GPS auxiliary information received from the RNC to the UEs
positioned in a corresponding cell over a broadcast channel. The
apparatus uses a multicast method to differently transmit individual GPS
auxiliary information needed for different cells, so that transmission
efficiency increases and UEs can more quickly determine their positions.
