Abstract

A method performed by a first device is disclosed that includes sending a light of sight, LOS, determination request to a second device which communicates with the first device, wherein the LOS determination request includes an indication of a dual polarization procedure for Line of Sight (LOS), with the indication of the dual polarization procedure for LOS is used indicating that a same sequence of bits is sent at two polarizations to the same direction; a channel measurement for each of the two received sequences at the two polarizations is compared to determine whether a transmission between the first device and the second is LOS or NLOS.
