Abstract

A device includes a delay profile estimator to estimate a delay profile of multiple paths of a radio signal, wherein the delay profile indicates signal powers of the multiple paths as a function of time delay. The device further includes a path selector to select a path from the delay profile if the path has a signal power higher than a threshold. The threshold has a first threshold value in a first section of the delay profile which is higher than a second threshold value in a second section of the delay profile.
