Workspace Method rte_losGeometricFromRtePosToRtePos2
Description
The geometric line-of-sight between two points. The method sets rte_los to the line-of-sight, at rte_pos, that matches the geometrical propagation path between rte_pos and rte_pos2. The standard case should be that rte_pos2 corresponds to a transmitter, and rte_pos to the receiver/sensor.
