1. A method, comprising:

  • determining, by the mobile terminal, an expected journey (L), wherein the L is an expected value of a distance traveled by the mobile terminal between two consecutive times of positioning the mobile terminal;

    obtaining, by the mobile terminal, a speed value (v) of the mobile terminal;

    determining, by the mobile terminal, a positioning frequency at which to position the mobile terminal, wherein the positioning frequency is a frequency at which a position of the mobile terminal is determined between the two consecutive times, and wherein a deviation between an actual distance traveled by the mobile terminal between the two consecutive times and the L traveled by the mobile terminal between the two consecutive times based on the positioning frequency is less than a specified threshold;

    adjusting, by the mobile terminal, a current positioning frequency to be the positioning frequency; and

    performing, by the mobile terminal, a positioning operation to determine one or more positions of the mobile terminal at one or more times according to the positioning frequency.
