Positioning system and method using mobile internet signal

A positioning system using a mobile Internet signal, comprising:

• access points for transmitting downlink signals for mobile Internet communications and pilot signals for mobile communications;
• an access terminal for receiving the downlink signals and the pilot signals, and generating positioning information using the downlink signals with access point information and the pilot signals, respectively;
• and
• a position determination entity (PDE) for calculating range values between the access terminal and the access points using the positioning information from the access terminal and determining a position of the access terminal using the calculated range values.

A positioning method using a mobile Internet signal, comprising:

• receiving downlink signals from access points using an access terminal for mobile Internet communications;
• generating positioning information using access point information on the access points and the downlink signals received from the access points;
• and
• calculating range values between the access terminal and the access points using the positioning information and calculating a position of the access terminal using the range values.
