A wireless communication method of exploiting the radio frequency (RF)
physical environment to establish a sufficient number of usable multiple
paths of RF propagation for facilitating communications. The method is
implemented in a wireless communication system including at least one
transmitter and at least one receiver. The receiver's antenna is directed
towards one of a plurality of reception paths and receives a data stream
from the transmitter via the reception path that the receiver antenna is
directed towards. The receiver decodes the data stream, reconstructs a
modulation pattern of the decoded data stream, and subtracts the
reconstructed data stream from a sum of all of the signals received by
the receiver via the reception paths. The receiver provides received
signal direction information associated with reception paths to the
transmitter. The transmitter adjusts and/or eliminates one or more of the
reception paths that are unusable based on the signal direction
information.
