He is wrong again, about who developed the technology. The two inventors who founded Wi-Lan developed the technique of using multiple spreading codes , for each individual user ...... well before Qualcom utilized the same technique. Qualcom added a new twist... that being increasing the number of individual users from one to many. Thus, rather than assigning a time slot to each user to define them from a group or network. .... their users are defined by distinct (but multiple) spreading codes. Again they piggybacked their technology onto that which was developed by the Wi-Lan company founders. As far as the Qualcomm chip goes ...... this special spreading / modulation technique (ie ABILITIES) remains LATENT within the chip ..... UNTIL the device makers append their own ABILITIES and TECHNIQUES to those which are inherent to the Qualcomm chip. These multiple abilities and techniques are called into play, and are fully utilized .... when the device initially encounters other like devices over the ether merriam-webster.com
