Claim Text:
1. A method for identifying crosstalk from a disturbing telecommunication line to a victim telecommunication line of a communication network, the identifying depending on quiet line noise measurement data related to the victim telecommunication line, wherein the method comprises: estimating a coupling length of the victim telecommunication line, the estimating depending on the quiet line noise measurement data related to the victim telecommunication line; and detecting, depending on the coupling length of the victim telecommunication line and a physical length of the victim telecommunication line, that the crosstalk is caused by the disturbing telecommunication line extending in parallel to a section of the victim telecommunication line; wherein the quiet line noise measurement data indicates a power spectral density on the victim telecommunication line concurrently with data signals being absent from the victim telecommunication line.
