A receiver of a mobile station or a base station in radio communications is formed by a correlation unit for generating a delay profile for specifying paths by taking correlations by using replica signals for a received pilot signal, and a path selection unit for comparing a power level of each path in the delay profile with a threshold determined according to an index value regarding a communication state, selecting paths for which a comparison result satisfies a prescribed condition as valid paths, and outputting a selected delay profile formed by the valid paths as a channel estimation value.
