Abstract

A method and apparatus for determining an angle-of-arrival (AOA) of the prompt ray at an adjacent sector of a base station is provided. High precision parameter estimates from a main sector location searcher (,) are provided to an adjacent sector location searcher (,) in order to enhance the accuracy of the parameter estimates generated by the adjacent sector location searcher (,). Main sector time-delay and phase estimates may be used as estimates for the adjacent sector time-delay, and phase estimates to increase the coherent averaging window within the adjacent sector location searcher, and hence to increase the accuracy of the amplitude estimation from the adjacent sector location searcher.
