Multipath components of transmitted data symbols are received with individual delays and processed by a RAKE having a number of fingers. A delay profile (31) indicating magnitudes for a first number of delay values is provided. Estimated magnitudes for a second number of delay values located between the first number of delay values are calculated by interpolation, and a combined delay profile (32) is provided by combining the magnitudes for the first and second number of delay values. Delay values for peaks in the combined delay profile are determined, and a number of peak delay values (P1, P2, P) comprising the largest peak are selected from the combined delay profile. At least some of the selected peak delay values are provided to the RAKE and assigned to the fingers. This allows a reduction of current consumption and dye area, while still providing delay values with sufficient resolution for the RAKE.
