    Abstract: Described is a method of determining a position of a mobile wireless device in a wireless communication network. The method comprises, for a plurality of clusters of transmission reception points (TRPs) associated with said mobile wireless device, measuring a parameter of first reference signals transmitted between said mobile wireless device and a single TRP from each cluster of TRPs. The method includes, based on the respective measured parameter of the first reference signals, selecting one cluster of TRPs from said plurality of clusters of TRPs. Position estimation information is determined from second reference signals transmitted between said mobile wireless device and a plurality of the TRPs comprising the selected cluster of TRPs. The determined position estimation information is used to determine a position for said mobile wireless device.

    Abstract: Provided is a method of determining timing of arrival of a signal on a path to a receiver in a mobile wireless communications system. The method comprises obtaining a channel impulse response (CIR) of a signal received at the receiver and deriving a power characteristic of the CIR. The method includes producing a first derivative of the power characteristic with respect to time, selecting some or all extrema from the first derivative of the power characteristic as indicative of candidate signal paths, and selecting one or more of said candidate signal paths. The method preferably includes determining timing of arrival of a signal on a first path of arrival at the receiver by assessing an energy value of each of said candidate signal paths against a threshold value.
