Abstract
A method (50) of selecting a set of probing paths in a network for network tomography. The method comprises generating (52) possible probing paths (P1). The method further comprises determining (53) if the possible probing paths are linearly independent from probing paths already selected for the set of probing paths, in an order of an increasing cost or distance of the possible probing paths. The method further comprises selecting (55) a said possible probing path for the set of probing paths only if the possible probing path is linearly independent from probing paths already selected.
