Abstract:
Systems and methods for wireless communications are disclosed. More particularly, aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to techniques for wireless communications by a first apparatus comprising obtaining, via at least first and second receive antennas having different polarizations, first and second training signals transmitted from a second apparatus via at least first and second transmit antennas having different polarizations, determining, based on the first and second training signals, one or more characteristics for different transmit-receive antenna pairs, each pair comprising one of the first or second transmit antennas and one of the first or second receive antennas, and generating, based on one or more characteristics, a parameter indicative of whether a link path between the first and second apparatuses is line of sight (LOS).
