- Multi-path fading A phenomenon from the domain of wireless networks. A signal emitted by a source node follows different paths on its way to the reciever node. In particular, the reciever node not only recieves the signal following the "line of sight" path, but also copies of this signal with a slight offset in time. Those copies followed a longer path and probably got reflected several times before reaching their destination. Because of these reflections the copies tend to be increasingly attenuated as time progresses.
