2MAR$, Wireless transmission now hits an obstacle if signals lose their line-of-sight from the transmitter. But the new technology uses reflected signals, known as multipath, to carry data, getting around the problem of hard-to-reach locations in major cities where a building might block the path. The same reflecting technology can be used to reach over distances of up to 30 miles in rural locations and developing countries where laying cable or fiber lines is not cost effective. Do you think this is equal to or better than radio wave wireless connection? Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
