Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for allocating RAKE branches and a RAKE receiver. The solution is used in a radio system where a transmitter transmits a signal to a receiver comprising RAKE branches which receive the signal at different polarization levels. The RAKE branches are allocated to receive the signal on the basis of an impulse response, and in which method the impulse responses of the signals received at different polarization levels are weighted by values describing signal quality for optimizing allocation.
