Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for wireless communications. Some aspects more specifically relate to elevation estimation for determining operating channels and transmission parameters. A wireless communication device, such as a cloud service, may receive geolocation information of an access point (AP). Additionally, or alternatively, the wireless communication device may receive air pressure and temperature information of the AP. Using the geolocation information and building datasets including locations and heights of buildings surrounding the AP, the wireless communication device may identify a highest building and based on its, height estimate an elevation of the AP. Based on the estimated building height and elevation, the wireless communication device may determine a set of transmission parameters for the AP and transmit an indication of the set to the AP.
