Abstract
An example method for determining a confidence value for an estimated parameter in a wireless positioning system includes receiving a signal comprising a number of signal samples, pre-processing each sample of the number of signal samples and therefrom providing a number of pre-processed samples, and calculating a first confidence value. The method further includes performing a pre-estimation of a parameter and providing a pre-estimated parameter, calculating a second confidence value for the pre-estimated parameter, performing a final estimation of the parameter and providing the estimated parameter, and calculating a third confidence value for the estimated parameter. The method includes combining at least two of the first, second and third confidence value and providing the confidence value for the estimated parameter. The confidence value is configured to be used in determining a position of at least one mobile device based on the estimated parameter.
