Claim Text:
1. A method for processing a concurrently triggered response signal at a plurality of transceivers configured to operate at a channel carrier frequency, at least some of the transceivers having distinct transmit carrier frequencies offset from the channel carrier frequency, the method comprising: receiving, at a first receiver, a response signal in response to a trigger signal, the response signal including a combination of a plurality of transceiver response signals, each transceiver response signal of the plurality of transceiver response signals corresponding to a different transceiver of the plurality of transceivers and having a distinct transmit carrier frequency, wherein at least some of the transceiver response signals overlap in time; and determining characteristics of the plurality of transceivers based on the carrier frequencies of the transceiver response signals, including determining a number of transceivers in the plurality of transceivers.
