The difference between the time of arrival of the earliest significant multipath component (typically the line-of-sight component) and the time of arrival of the latest multipath component.

equalization

Telecommunications; Wireless communication

A form of conditioning that reduces the frequency distortion or phase distortion, or both, in an electrical signal on a metallic conductor or in a radio signal traveling through the atmosphere.

fading

Telecommunications; Wireless communication

The reduction in signal intensity of one or several of the components of a radio signal, typically caused by the reflective or refractive effects of multi-path.
