Patent ID: 6957046

Claim:
A method of reducing multipath interference in a wireless data transmission, the method comprising the steps of: (a) capturing a plurality of data packets associated with the wireless data transmission, each of the data packets being associated with a time value, and wherein some of the data packets being captured are non-reflective packets and some are reflective packets; (b) determining whether each captured data packet is reflective or non-reflective by: comparing the time value of the captured data packet to the time value of each stored non-reflective packet; identifying the captured data packet as non-reflective, when the time value of the captured packet is different from the time value of each stored non-reflective packet; and identifying the captured data packet as reflective, when time value of the captured packet is identical to the time value of any stored non-reflective packet; and (c) repeating the determining step for each subsequently captured data packet.
