A method for associating signal sources and paths includes determining secondary paths of a signal received at a reception point, wherein the signal reflects off one or more reflective surfaces before being received at the reception point, determining mirror sources of the secondary paths in accordance with locations of the one or more reflective surfaces and a main source of the signal, determining associations between the secondary paths and the mirror sources based on cross points at which the signal reflected off the one or more reflective surfaces, thereby obtaining path-source associations, and instructing use of the path-source associations in multi-source channel estimation.
