A method for reporting multi-path signals based on a report window in a wireless communication system, wherein a receiving unit is operable to search for multi-path signals, the method comprising: determining a distribution of a plurality of multi-path signals observed by the receiving unit; determining a report window based on the distribution; and reporting, to a communication network of the wireless communication system, at least one of the plurality of multi-path signals based on the report window, wherein reporting at least one of the plurality of multi-path signals based on the report window comprises: generating a first energy/position pair associated with a first multi-path signal and a second energy/position pair associated with a second multi-path signal, each of the first and second energy/position pairs including an energy parameter and a position parameter; upon detecting a difference between the position parameters of the first and second energy/position pairs is less than a position threshold, comparing the energy parameters of the first and second energy/position pairs; and reporting the first energy/position pair in response to the energy parameter of the first energy/position pair being greater than the energy parameter of the second energy/position pair, wherein the step of determining a report window comprises: determining a search period for a prior search; determining an interval associated with a predetermined number of energy/position pairs observed during the search period for the prior search and reported, each of the energy/position pairs being associated with one of the plurality of multi-path signals; subtracting the interval from the search period to determine the report window for a current search; and reporting the energy/position pairs observed during the determined report window for the current search. determining a distribution of a plurality of multi-path signals observed by the receiving unit; determining a report window based on the distribution; and reporting, to a communication network of the wireless communication system, at least one of the plurality of multi-path signals based on the report window, wherein reporting at least one of the plurality of multi-path signals based on the report window comprises: generating a first energy/position pair associated with a first multi-path signal and a second energy/position pair associated with a second multi-path signal, each of the first and second energy/position pairs including an energy parameter and a position parameter; upon detecting a difference between the position parameters of the first and second energy/position pairs is less than a position threshold, comparing the energy parameters of the first and second energy/position pairs; and reporting the first energy/position pair in response to the energy parameter of the first energy/position pair being greater than the energy parameter of the second energy/position pair, generating a first energy/position pair associated with a first multi-path signal and a second energy/position pair associated with a second multi-path signal, each of the first and second energy/position pairs including an energy parameter and a position parameter; upon detecting a difference between the position parameters of the first and second energy/position pairs is less than a position threshold, comparing the energy parameters of the first and second energy/position pairs; and reporting the first energy/position pair in response to the energy parameter of the first energy/position pair being greater than the energy parameter of the second energy/position pair, wherein the step of determining a report window comprises: determining a search period for a prior search; determining an interval associated with a predetermined number of energy/position pairs observed during the search period for the prior search and reported, each of the energy/position pairs being associated with one of the plurality of multi-path signals; subtracting the interval from the search period to determine the report window for a current search; and reporting the energy/position pairs observed during the determined report window for the current search.
