1. A method comprising:
defining, at a defining unit, an energy of pilot carriers in a multi-carrier signal in respect of an estimated guard interval position of said signal, and
based on said energy, selecting a position for a time domain to frequency domain transform window of said signal, wherein the selecting is based on an energy ratio between energy sample inside the estimated guard interval position and energy sample outside the estimated guard interval position.
