Abstract: A method for estimating a radio network topology at a given node of a plurality of nodes, defining a radio network, located in a deployment zone. The method includes obtaining a position of the given node and at least one other node from the plurality of nodes; obtaining elevation data in the deployment zone; for each two given nodes selected from the given node and the at least one node from the plurality of nodes, computing a total radio path loss estimate between the two given nodes using part of the elevation data; comparing the computed total radio path loss estimate and a corresponding maximum permissible path loss value between the two given nodes to determine if a given radio link between the two given nodes is possible; storing an indication of the radio link possibility; and generating the estimated radio network topology using the stored indications.
