Systems and methods for enabling accurate unilateral geolocation in a user equipment (UE) are provided. In one embodiment, the UE utilizes network attachments steps to determine an estimate of a propagation time difference between two base stations. The UE then estimates a transmit time difference between the two base stations using the estimate of the propagation time difference and Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) assistance data received from the network. The UE computes its position based on the transmit time difference and OTDOA measurements. In another embodiment, the UE uses measurements from multiple receive antenna elements to measure an Angle Difference of Arrival (ADO) between multiple base stations and a reference base station, and computes its position based on the ADOA measurements.
