TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of mobile terminals, and in particular, to a terminal positioning method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium.

BACKGROUND

Terminals, such as mobile phones, watches, or bracelets can be positioned through a Global Positioning System (GPS). The GPS has advantages of high positioning accuracy and wide coverage. However, as for positioning of indoor space, the received signal is extremely weak due to factors such as occlusion of a building, resulting in low positioning accuracy which cannot meet the user's indoor positioning requirements for the terminal. As a result, the user's effective management of the terminal can be diminished.
