Abstract

A method on a first device for estimating path-loss between the first device and a second device is described. A user context indicator associated with the first device is determined. At least one path-loss parameter of a plurality of path-loss parameters for the first device is updated based on the user context indicator. At least one wireless signal is received from the second device. The path-loss between the first device and the second device is estimated based on the plurality of path-loss parameters and the at least one wireless signal.
