A wireless communication receiver performs robust cell searching, excluding interference due to UL transmissions from other UE, by qualifying the output of a matched filter with a metric indicative of the momentary signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The momentary SNR metric is derived over the same amount of samples as the length of the matched filter. By discarding filter outputs during low momentary SNR, synchronization interference from UL transmissions is avoided. The momentary SNR metric and filter outputs are efficiently calculated, with only a few states and operations, compared to a conventional tapped delay line filter implementation. A limited list of cell candidates is populated, with information on correlation, timing, cell identity within cell group, and SNR metric for the K strongest candidates with respect to the matched filter correlation values. This list is used for later cell search stages, where a secondary synchronization channel is decoded.
