    Earliest standards were dependent on a single frequency/channel to both send and receive. This shared medium creates the same problem as half-duplex coax cable. Because receivers had to wait for the signal before sending a response, this reduced the overall bandwidth.

    Other factors affect wireless signal propagation, too, including RF interference, antenna choice, and obstacles such as walls, trees, and even weather (precipitation, for example).
