Claim 8:
9. The method according to claim 8, wherein said determining of the portion of the envelope signal comprises:
calculating a maximum value of the envelope signal and a corresponding first temporal position at which the envelope signal has the maximum value;
calculating, as a function of the first and second operative parameters and of the maximum value of the envelope signal, a first and, respectively, a second threshold value of the envelope signal, the first and the second threshold values being lower than the maximum value of the envelope signal; and
determining a second temporal position of the envelope signal at which the value of the envelope signal is equal to the first threshold value, and a third temporal position of the envelope signal at which the value of the envelope signal is equal to the second threshold value, the second temporal position being lower than the first temporal position and the third temporal position being greater than the first temporal position.
