ABSTRACT:
A multi-path device includes a plurality of communication paths being defined between a plurality of first transceivers and one second transceiver. Each communication path contains at least one repeater. Each signal transmission from the first transceiver to the second transceiver contains an identifiable copy of an identical signal copy over each communication path. There is a signal quality determining portion associated with the second transceiver for determining the quality of the signal copy received by the second transceiver via each of said communication paths. A communication path limiting portion controls the strength of each communication path based upon said signal quality determining portion. It is envisioned that this device may use a CDMA communication protocol.
