Abstract
A method for locating an impairment within a telecommunication line may include determining measurement data related to the telecommunication line and estimating a location of the impairment depending on the measurement data. The measurement data includes crosstalk data including at least one transfer function element of a crosstalk matrix. The transfer function element characterizes a crosstalk transfer function from the telecommunication line towards the at least one further telecommunication line, and the method includes detecting oscillations in the crosstalk transfer function.
