    Abstract: A UE may identify a channel correlation matrix for a channel between the UE and a network node. The UE may identify whether the channel is associated with an LOS condition based on the channel correlation matrix. The UE may obtain a plurality of eigenvalues of the channel correlation matrix based on an eigen decomposition operation on the channel correlation matrix. The UE may identify whether the channel is associated with the LOS condition based on the plurality of eigenvalues of the channel correlation matrix. The UE may identify that the channel is associated with the LOS condition if a difference between a greatest eigenvalue in the plurality of eigenvalues and an average of other eigenvalues in the plurality of eigenvalues is greater than a threshold. Otherwise, the UE may identify that the channel is not associated with the LOS condition.
