Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a fifth-generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system to support a higher data transmission rate, following a fourth-generation (4G) communication system including long term evolution (LTE). A method for operating an electronic device is provided. The method includes determining the properties of a first signal and a second signal that are transmitted through different frequency bands and performing line-of-sight (LoS) determination based on the determined properties of the first signal and the second signal.
Claims17
A method for operating a first electronic device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the first electronic device, a message including information, from a second electronic device;
- determining, by the first electronic device, properties of a first signal and a second signal that are received through different frequency bands from the second electronic device based on the information;
- and
- performing, by the first electronic device, line-of-sight (LoS) determination by comparing the properties of the first signal and the second signal,
- wherein the information includes at least one parameter for a transmission power of the first signal and a transmission power of the second signal, and
- wherein the at least one parameter is used by the first electronic device for determining the properties of the first signal and the second signal.
A first electronic device comprising:
- a wireless communication transceiver;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- control the wireless communication transceiver to receive a message including information from a second electronic device,
- determine properties of a first signal and a second signal that are received through different frequency bands from the second electronic device based on the information, and
- perform line-of-sight (LoS) determination by comparing the properties of the first signal and the second signal,
- wherein the information includes at least one parameter for a transmission power of the first signal and a transmission power of the second signal, and
- wherein the at least one parameter is used by the first electronic device for determining the properties of the first signal and the second signal.
