A signal-path-selection method in a RAKE receiver includes producing C channel estimates from M received signal paths, determining a plurality of best signal paths using the C produced channel estimates, choosing A signal paths of the plurality of best signal paths in accordance with at least one pre-determined criterion, and combining the A signal paths. C is a measure of channel-estimation capacity of the RAKE receiver. M is greater than C. This Abstract is provided to comply with rules requiring an Abstract that allows a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain subject matter of the technical disclosure. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
