Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method for estimating locations of obstacles to signal transmission in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
at a User Equipment (UE) in communication with the wireless communication network, in response to receiving a reference signal from a neighboring node via a non-line-of-sight (NLoS) transmission, transmitting an identification of the neighboring node to network equipment implementing the wireless communication network to facilitate estimating the locations of the obstacles to signal transmission based on estimates of a location of the UE and a location of the neighboring node,
wherein the identification of the neighboring node is not transmitted in response to receiving the reference signal from the neighboring node via a line-of-sight (LoS) transmission.
