A method for providing an estimate of a received signal strength comprising receiving a signal, the received signal comprising a desired signal; measuring an energy of the desired signal to provide a measured energy, the measuring further comprising first integrating the desired signal over a first predetermined interval to provide an averaged energy, and second integrating the averaged energy over a second predetermined interval to provide the measured energy; and estimating a signal strength of the desired signal in accordance with the measured energy, wherein the estimated signal strength is indicative of the received signal strength. A signal strength estimator adapted to perform the method is also described. |
