Abstract
Inter-alia, a method is disclosed comprising: obtaining, for at least one reference position, an estimate of a representative direction from a node of a communication network to the at least one reference position based on information indicative of at least one directional measurement, the directional measurement being indicative at least of a propagation direction of a signal communicated between the at least one reference position and the node of the communication network; obtaining, for the at least one reference position, a weighted estimate of the representative direction based on at least an angular weighting function for the at least one reference position, the angular weighting function being representative at least of an aperture of at least one antenna of the node of the communication network; and obtaining information indicative at least of an orientation and/or position of the node of the communication network at least based on the weighted estimate of the representative direction obtained for the at least one reference position.
