A method for wireless communications, comprising: receiving , at a receiving wireless device (115-d) in a first geographic zone (205-a), a plurality of signals from a plurality of transmitting wireless devices (115-e, 115-f); determining , based at least in part on the plurality of signals, that the plurality of transmitting wireless devices (115-e, 115-f) are in a second geographic zone (205-b) different from the first geographic zone; determining configured transmit power information for each of the plurality of signals from the plurality of transmitting wireless devices (115-e, 115-f) that are in the second geographic zone; estimating a path loss of wireless communications between the first geographic zone and the second geographic zone based at least in part on the configured transmit power information; and transmitting at least one signal to at least a portion of the second geographic zone based at least in part on the estimated path loss between the first geographic zone and the second geographic zone, wherein estimating the path loss further comprises: determining a plurality of per-device path loss estimates, wherein each of the plurality is a per-device path loss estimated for a respective transmitting device of the plurality of transmitting wireless devices in the second geographic zone; and estimating the path loss between the first and second geographic zones is based at least in part on a weighted average or a weighted median of the plurality of per-device path losses. receiving , at a receiving wireless device (115-d) in a first geographic zone (205-a), a plurality of signals from a plurality of transmitting wireless devices (115-e, 115-f); determining , based at least in part on the plurality of signals, that the plurality of transmitting wireless devices (115-e, 115-f) are in a second geographic zone (205-b) different from the first geographic zone; determining configured transmit power information for each of the plurality of signals from the plurality of transmitting wireless devices (115-e, 115-f) that are in the second geographic zone; estimating a path loss of wireless communications between the first geographic zone and the second geographic zone based at least in part on the configured transmit power information; and transmitting at least one signal to at least a portion of the second geographic zone based at least in part on the estimated path loss between the first geographic zone and the second geographic zone, wherein estimating the path loss further comprises: determining a plurality of per-device path loss estimates, wherein each of the plurality is a per-device path loss estimated for a respective transmitting device of the plurality of transmitting wireless devices in the second geographic zone; and estimating the path loss between the first and second geographic zones is based at least in part on a weighted average or a weighted median of the plurality of per-device path losses. determining a plurality of per-device path loss estimates, wherein each of the plurality is a per-device path loss estimated for a respective transmitting device of the plurality of transmitting wireless devices in the second geographic zone; and estimating the path loss between the first and second geographic zones is based at least in part on a weighted average or a weighted median of the plurality of per-device path losses. <EOS>
