A system and method is capable of identifying multipath wireless signals, their
relative strength, and their position. The system and method may be used in wireless
distance measurement to generate a distance measurement free of multipath distortion.
First and second wireless devices transmit and receive signals to generate multipath
information. For distance measurements, this information may be used to calculate
the true distance between two wireless devices that is compensated for multipath.
The system and method may be used in a mobile wireless communications system to
discriminate between various mobile wireless communications devices located in
a region, for example, to conduct a commercial transaction or transmit or receive
other information.
