Representation of a transmitter (broadcasting a signal with strong angular dispersion

Caption

Representation of a transmitter (left) broadcasting a signal with strong angular dispersion. Each frequency is represented by a different color and comes out in a different direction, which produces a rainbowlike structure. Two of the frequencies make it to the receiver (right), one represented by yellow (LOS path) and another by blue (NLOS path incorporating a reflection off a surface).
