How to report back "my position"??
Sometimes when I walk away
too far from my squad,
one of my AI (or human) member do radiochat
"report your position".

But I have no idea how to
answer it back.

You don't need to, it's just something the character doesa automatically and to indicate that you are out of range from your team.

Can't.
Closest you can do is command which ever unit it is to move. Tell them to move right in front of you or where you are headed.

Correct. Beyond that there is no way

How come AI can report their position then? one AI will say "report position" and then another will usually reply with "grid xxxxxx"

When your AI squadmate gets lost, and wants to know where you are when you're a leader, lets say your number 5 man, you simply press F5, then click on the ground next to you.

A 5-second Google search says it's 5->5, and it's also where you can ask for someone's position

AFAIK there has not been an action menu item for reporting your position, even going back to OFP.
@KapitanSWAT - that's the sitrep command, it's you asking your AI team mate where his is - and checking he's still alive. You don't report your position to them.
When a subordinate whines "where's are you?" I usually just give him an individual move command to somewhere near my position.

When you say click, what do i click (in terms of what button should i press)?

The left mouse button, or space works too, I think.
In short, just selecting a soldier and clicking somewhere issues a basic move command.
Thus, in theory, the soldier should start moving toward you.

In practice, they can get stuck if they're too far away.
