The invention relates to a method for detecting multipath propagation in RF signals exchanged between a mobile entity (10) and different cells (31, 32) of a cellular network. The method comprises the steps of obtaining cell location information for a plurality of cells; obtaining a measurement report reported by the mobile entity (10) to the cellular network for a first cell (31) and a second cell (32) of the plurality of cells, the measurement report comprising a parameter related to a first time delay occurring for the RF signal travelling between the first cell (31) and the mobile entity (10), and a parameter related to a second time delay occurring for the RF signal travelling between the second cell (32) and the mobile entity (10). A time delay difference is calculated between the first time delay and the second time delay, and a distance difference is deduced from the time delay difference taking into account the speed of the RF signals travelling between the first cell (31) and the mobile entity (10) and between the second cell (32) and the mobile entity (10). An inter-cell distance between the first cell (31) and the second cell (32) is calculated based on the cell location information for the first cell and the second cell. The inter-cell distance is compared to the distance difference, wherein the multipath propagation is detected based on the result of the comparison.
